What is Role Based Access Control (RBAC)?
Role Based Access Control (RBAC) is an ANSI standard (ANSI INCITS 359-2004) supported by the National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST). With the 11.5.10 release, Oracle User Management has implemented an RBAC model that closely follows this standard. The RBAC standard supports the mapping of user access control based upon the role that the user plays within the organization rather than upon the user’s individual identity. The benefits of implementing RBAC include: Reduced cost of administering user access Streamlined setup and implementation of security policies Structured user access control based upon users’ job functions The RBAC model augments the existing access control model in Oracle Applications by providing additional methods to organize your data security policies and existing function security (via roles). Security privileges in Oracle Applications have up to this point been managed on an individual user basis, with different types of privileges assigned to each us
