Multiple Security categories for a single file

On behalf of Celanese, I’d like to understand if adding more than one Security Category to a single file or timeseries is supported by the CDF platform and APIs. Also, can it be confirmed that if a certain file is under two categories, only users that are capable of seeing both categories will be able to see it? Thanks!

That is entirely correct- multiple security categories may be applied to a single file or timeseries, and a user must have both access to all security  categories applied, as well as relevant access to that resources type.
https://developer.cognite.com/dev/guides/iam/authorization#security-categories has some more detailed examples.
