Role-Based Security

Introduction

Role-based security is a fundamental security model that defines access control based on a user’s roles within an application or system. It ensures that users only have access to the resources they need to perform their tasks.

Key Concepts

– Roles: Define distinct sets of permissions. – Permissions: Specific actions or data access allowed.

– Least Privilege: Grant users only the minimum permissions necessary.

Example

A user with the 'Admin' role can manage all data, while a 'User' role can only view data.

Benefits

– Improved Security – Reduced Risk – Enhanced Compliance – Streamlined Administration
