Explanation:
Role-based access control is a model where access to resources is determines by job role rather
than by user account.
Within an organization, roles are created for various job functions. The permissions to perform
certain operations are assigned to specific roles. Members or staff (or other system users) are
assigned particular roles, and through those role assignments acquire the computer permissions
to perform particular computer-system functions. Since users are not assigned permissions
directly, but only acquire them through their role (or roles), management of individual user rights
becomes a matter of simply assigning appropriate roles to the user’s account; this simplifies
common operations, such as adding a user, or changing a user’s department.
To configure role-based access control, you need a list (or matrix) of job titles (roles) and the
access privileges that should be assigned to each role.
