Daily Term: Attribute-Based Access Control

Attribute-Based Access Control

Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) grants permissions based on user attributes (e.g., department, location) rather than roles. For example, a policy might allow access to a resource only if the user’s 'department' is 'HR' and 'location' is 'US.' ABAC offers fine-grained control and flexibility for complex systems, but it can be harder to manage than RBAC due to the need for detailed attribute policies and evaluation logic.
