Role-Based Access Control

Role-based access control (RBAC) is a security approach that limits access to information and resources based on a user's role within an organization. Each user is assigned one or more roles, which determine what data and functions they can access. For example, a manager may have access to sensitive reports, while an intern might only see basic information. This method ensures that people only see what they need to do their jobs, enhancing security and reducing the risk of unauthorized access to confidential information.
