Abstract
Techniques described herein can allow users to share cached results of an original query with other users while protecting sensitive information. The techniques described herein can check whether the other users have access to the underlying data queried before allowing those users to see the stored query results. That is, the system may perform privilege checks on the shared users before giving them access to the stored query results but without having to re-run the original query.
