(22) Describe Role – based Access Control (RBAC)
mechanism in ERP systems?
- In Role-based access control (RBAC), access is given to only authorized users.
- RBAC is also referred to as Role-Based Security.
- The components of RBAC such as role-permissions, user-role and role-role relationships make it simple to perform user assignments.
- RBAC can be used in large organizations with hundreds of users and thousands of permissions and helps in security administration.
- Access to the system can be given according to the role assigned. E.g. a accountant is assigned a role of recording basic accounting transactions or an employee in human resource department is assigned a role of gathering HR data for salary calculations etc.
