Setting up per-object permissions in Django

“

- When you have data models in Django, the permissions to add, modify or delete that data depends on the logic you implement in your views. Without fine grain security checks, any user could access another user's data and even modify it if the security check is poorly coded. We're going to begin by adding the guardian app to the installed apps list, in our settings file. And we're going to scroll down to the authentication backends, and we're going to be adding the object permission backend from guardian, and then ,we're going to be running the migrations. As you can see, guardian is part of the list of migrations, it provides its own migrations for object permissions.
