Acronym for Role-Based Access Control—permissions assigned through role membership.
RBAC stands for Role-Based Access Control. See 'Role-Based Access Control' for the full definition. Most enterprise applications and cloud platforms support RBAC.
Why It Matters
The DSC Perspective:
RBAC is standard practice for access management. Implement role-based models rather than individual permission assignments. Keep roles aligned with actual job functions and review regularly.
