Restrict section by user

Today in Qlik the same user can open the same dashboard several times in several different windows, I would like to limit it to only opening one section of this dashboard for each user who has access. You can do this on all dashboards, but I would like to do this on just one dashboard, restricting one section per user.

I already thought, but how would I do it there.
because when the user opens the dash in a tab, I automatically want him to be prohibited from opening the same dashboard in another tab simultaneously

I don't think that is possible, if a user has access to the dashboard then they can open it in other tabs in the same browser.  Can you clarify why this would be considered a security risk?

For different browsers I already have this security function in qmc that works: ((resource.name="Gestão de Pessoas(7)") and (user.userId="binmt") and (session.count = 1)), but The same browser on a different computer does not work.
We need this to further guarantee security in accessing data, as the same manager uses both PCs and sometimes leaves them logged in.

When you open separate tabs in the same browser that is only using up 1 license(access pass), when you open them in different browsers or PCs that is using a 2nd license, which could explain this.

This is most likely handled via suggestion as a product idea:

Otherwise needs to be an end user education thing I think.
