Authorization management

What is meant by Authorization management?

"Authorization management" refers to the administration and control of access rights to data, systems, or applications within a company or organization. The goal of authorization management is to ensure that users can only access the information and functions necessary for their tasks and roles within the organization. This involves the assignment, verification, and management of permissions, as well as the enforcement of security policies to prevent unauthorized access.

Typical software functions in the area of "authorization management":

  1. User Management: Creation, management, and deletion of user accounts, including assignment of roles and permissions.
  2. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Definition of roles and assignment of permissions based on users' tasks and responsibilities.
  3. Authorization Verification: Checking and validating access requests to ensure that users access only authorized resources.
  4. Audit and Compliance: Logging access activities, verifying policy compliance, and supporting compliance audits.
  5. Access Monitoring: Real-time monitoring and notifications of suspicious access attempts or unusual activities.
  6. Single Sign-On (SSO): Integration of SSO solutions to provide users with easier and more secure access to various applications.

Examples of "authorization management":

  1. User Roles: Administrators can assign different roles to various users, such as administrator, employee, guest, each with different access rights.
  2. Access Permissions: An employee has access to specific customer data only after authorization by their supervisor.
  3. Password Policies: Establishing and enforcing password policies such as length, complexity, and expiration times.
  4. Audit Trails: Recording all access attempts and actions for later review and tracking.
  5. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Requiring an additional security layer beyond the password to access sensitive data.
  6. Permission Inheritance: Automatic propagation of permissions to subfolders or files based on parent permissions.
