In computer systems security, role-based access control ( RBAC) [1] [2] or role-based security [3] is an approach to restricting system access to authorized users, and to implementing mandatory access control (MAC) or discretionary access control (DAC). Role-based access control is a policy-neutral access control mechanism defined around roles ...
NIST RBAC model. The NIST RBAC model is a standardized definition of role-based access control. Although originally developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the standard was adopted and is copyrighted and distributed as INCITS 359-2004 by the International Committee for Information Technology Standards (INCITS).
Rule-Based Access Control (RAC) RAC method, also referred to as Rule-Based Role-Based Access Control (RB-RBAC), is largely context based. Example of this would be allowing students to use labs only during a certain time of day; it is the combination of students' RBAC-based information system access control with the time-based lab access rules ...
Relationship-based access control. In computer systems security, Relationship-based access control (ReBAC) defines an authorization paradigm where a subject's permission to access a resource is defined by the presence of relationships between those subjects and resources. In general, authorization in ReBAC is performed by traversing the ...
Attribute-based access control. Attribute-based access control ( ABAC ), also known as policy-based access control for IAM, defines an access control paradigm whereby a subject's authorization to perform a set of operations is determined by evaluating attributes associated with the subject, object, requested operations, and, in some cases ...
In computer security, general access control includes identification, authorization, authentication, access approval, and audit.A more narrow definition of access control would cover only access approval, whereby the system makes a decision to grant or reject an access request from an already authenticated subject, based on what the subject is authorized to access.
Discretionary access control. In computer security, discretionary access control ( DAC) is a type of access control defined by the Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria [1] (TCSEC) as a means of restricting access to objects based on the identity of subjects and/or groups to which they belong. The controls are discretionary in the sense ...
Organisation-based access control. In computer security, organization-based access control ( OrBAC) is an access control model first presented in 2003. The current approaches of the access control rest on the three entities ( subject, action, object) to control the access the policy specifies that some subject has the permission to realize some ...
