Role-Based Access Control is a security framework that manages permissions by grouping them into roles. Each role represents a specific job function or responsibility within an organization. Users are assigned roles rather than individual permissions.
RBAC simplifies administration by reducing the number of permission assignments. When a role’s permissions change, all users assigned to that role automatically inherit the updated access rights. This improves consistency and reduces configuration errors.
RBAC supports the principle of least privilege by ensuring users have only the access necessary to perform their duties. It also simplifies audits and compliance reviews by providing a clear mapping between roles and permissions.
