I believe section access is not the right way to do this, please have a look at:

Introduction to Section Access

Cited from the first:

"Finally, the object based access: This method has in my mind very little to do with security: If a chart is hidden for a specific user, he can still see the same data through other objects. Or even worse – if you allow collaboration, he can create an object that shows the same thing. A show condition could be convenient to use anyway, but it is a poor tool for security."
