Authorization may be implemented using role based access control, access control lists or a policy language such as XACML. |

Role Engineering - The Cornerstone of Role-Based Access Control |
| By :CA |
Published Date: Jun 25, 2008 |
|
Role-based access control (RBAC) is becoming the norm for managing entitlements within commercial systems and applications. RBAC can play a significant role in establishing a model for enforcing security within organizations. It simplifies entitlement management by using roles (as opposed to users) as authorization subjects. Having a holistic approach to role definition can help alleviate certification-related regulatory compliance challenges, and should be considered an integral part of any IAM initiative.

Yet password security remains a cornerstone of system security: as much as 80% of security breaches take place not through arcane hacking and virus attacks, but through system infiltration facilitated by use of a password.

The identity federation market enjoys an exceptional supply of products. With well over a dozen products available to enterprise customers, most architects have more choices than time will allow for evaluation. This abundance of products is partly the result of the inherent difficulty of developing a truly multipurpose federation server. Although federation products are similar in name, each has its own personality and idiosyncrasies that make it suitable for certain environments but insufficient in others.
