DAC Principles

DAC (Discretionary Access Control) principles refer to a system where data access rights are assigned and managed by the owner or administrator of the information. In this model, users are granted permissions based on their roles or relationships, but these permissions are flexible and can be changed at the owner’s discretion. This approach allows for customized control over who can view or modify data, balancing security with user needs. Essentially, DAC empowers data owners to decide access levels, making it adaptable to different organizational requirements while maintaining security and control over information.
