Episode 33 — Access to Data: ABAC, RBAC and Least Privilege Enforcement
Controlling access to data is as important as protecting it. This episode introduces Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), and the principle of least privilege as applied in cloud contexts. We explore how these models work, how policies are defined, and how to prevent excessive entitlements.
Exam questions frequently test your ability to apply the right access model to a scenario, such as when dynamic attributes should drive access or when stable role definitions are sufficient. By mastering these distinctions, you’ll be ready to design and evaluate controls that keep sensitive information accessible only to those who truly need it. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
