Column-level security allows to specify Users/Groups with Access.  
My situation is that only a handful of users cannot access certain columns. By specify Users/Groups with Access needs stating almost everyone which is not so efficient.

How can I specify Users/Groups with NO Access to certain columns? OR any neater workaround?

Thanks.

Hi @lbl,  
From my experience with CLS, I don’t believe there’s any real alternate option or work around that can allow you to setup in the opposite manner.

I’ll mark this as a feature request to promote visibility to the support team.

Thank you
