RBAC

Role-Based Access Control

A security model that restricts system access based on predefined roles within an organization. Instead of assigning permissions to individual users, RBAC assigns access rights to roles that users inherit based on their job responsibilities.

• Cloud Security: Manages permissions for cloud services, ensuring users only have access to relevant data and operations.
• Cybersecurity: Limits user access to only the resources necessary for their role, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and insider threats.
• Enterprise IT: Enforces structured access control for databases, applications, and networks based on employee roles.
• Finance: Restricts access to sensitive financial data and transactions to authorized personnel, reducing fraud risk.
• Healthcare: Controls access to patient records and medical systems based on job functions, ensuring compliance with regulations like HIPAA.
• Software Development: Grants developers, testers, and administrators different levels of access to production environments, minimizing security vulnerabilities.

RBAC improves security, ensures compliance, and simplifies user management by enforcing access policies based on job roles rather than individual accounts.
