All entity security settings set to "Nobody", yet non-admin user stills sees data for entity

Hi, I have set all security settings on an entity to "Nobody" and yet when I see a dashboard using a non-admin user I still see data. The same when using a spreadsheet. This does not make sense to me...

    Also, check your application security roles and the "ViewAllData" role.  If this has "Everyone" this group trumps/overrides/supersedes any individual entity security you are trying to apply.

This solved it! ViewAllData was set to a group which was not Administrators but included the user I was testing with. After changing this to a more suitable (restricted) group which does not include the test user, it's working as I wanted.
