I will suggest to use ViewModel which will have required fields to render on UI and may be specific to you Controller - Action.

see this SO link on best practices of using ViewModel -

Use following in action.

[Bind(Exclude = "Permission")]

To exclude multiple attribute, you can do

 [Bind(Exclude = "attribute1,attribute2,attribute3")]

@dor: You can exclude more than properties using comman after each attribute name like [Bind(Exclude="OBJECTID,Permission")]
