# Add authentication for data source plugins
@@ -11,7 +11,7 @@ When a user saves a password or any other sensitive data as a data source option
To minimize the amount of sensitive information sent to and from the browser, data source plugins can use the Grafana _data source proxy_. When using the data source proxy, any requests containing sensitive information go through the Grafana server. No sensitive data is sent to the browser after the data is saved.
Some data sources, like [Prometheus](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/features/datasources/prometheus/) and [InfluxDB](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/features/datasources/influxdb/), allow users to configure whether to use the data source proxy, through a setting called _access modes_.
