Role Based Access control |
| |
| Abstract |
An expansion in corporate profiles, as a result of mergers and strategic alliances, tends to dilute
geographical boundaries in contemporary businesses. Organizations today have assumed a global
presence and are no longer restricted within their narrow confines. Consequently, Internet with its
ubiquitous presence in intra and inter-organizational communication has emerged as a vital
component in modern business paradigm. Business houses, in recent years indicate an increasing
affinity towards it to effectively:
- Acquire new customers
- Acquire new partners
- Use partner's infrastructure
- Combine Intranet and Extranet
Role Based Access Control (RBAC) is method of assigning access to resources within organization,
based on the individual's need for the data information.
This white paper discusses important concepts related to RBAC and its implementation.
