Understanding Attribute Based Access Control (ABAC)
There are a few widely known authorization methods used today. The popular one is Role-based access control (RBAC). However, RBAC does have its limitations. Another method is attribute-based access control (ABAC), where you can use specific attributes, the specific object you want to allow access to, and the specific operations (create, run, delete, view, etc) allowed. Using attributes with well-defined policies, organizations can grant specific access to networks, applications, and much more.

Thank you so much, your comment helps me continue to make future videos. Let me know if you have any topics you want me to cover in the future.
I just completed XACML implementation. It has a lot of potential because you can do RBAC with ABAC but not the other way. Unfortunately, we don't see this as part of leading Access Management products because continuous evaluation is seen as overhead.

100% I’ll add it list for a future video!
Hmm. So we basically start wide with RBAC and we can, if we prefer depending on requested needs and requirements narrow down access using ABAC?

Craig, you can’t it all depends on your organization and what they want to do or how specific they want. ABAC takes a lot of time and effort to get going.
Nice video Thank you Could you please shed light on when you have to replicate your organisation structure in a saas solution to aid access and permissions for a system, and upload system user's on to the system daily.

Hi David, that is a good and interesting question. I think I need more info to help answer that for you. When I see SAAS products to aid in access and permissions, I am looking at products like Okta that does access management (among other things but its what Okta focused on first). If you want shoot me an email andrew@allthingsidentity.com, I'd love to chat more about your question.
