Censoring sensitive information within a dataset

I am attempting to censor sensitive information such as columns containing PII within a dataset based on user roles. Am I able to do this by attaching object tags to these specific columns within the dataset and restricting access based on the user roles? Or is there a better way of achieving this?

    The way I have done it (and there might be other ways) is to:

    1. In the dataset, annotate columns and assign data tags (you can create new tags that are sensitive)
    2. Create a view based on the original dataset, but do not include the sensitive columns (indicated by tags)
    3. Share that view to another space (you can create a space for non-sensitive data)
    4. Only have your user in a group assigned to the new space

    Would love to hear if that is the best way or not…
