Discretionary Access Control (DAC) Sample Clauses

Discretionary Access Control (DAC). Discretionary access control (DAC) is a policy determined by the owner of an object. The owner decides who is allowed to access the object and what privileges they have. Two important concepts in DAC are:  File and data ownership: Every object in the system has an owner. In most DAC systems, each object's initial owner is the subject that caused it to be created. The access policy for an object is determined by its owner.  Access rights and permissions: These are the controls that an owner can assign to other subjects for specific resources.

Discretionary Access Control (DAC). While in Mandatory Access Control (MAC) access to system resources is controlled by the operating system (under the control of a system administrator), Discretionary Access Control (DAC) allows users to control access to their own data, who and how (read, write, execute) can access it. DAC is typically the default access control mechanism for most desktop operating systems and has been integrated into UNIX, FreeBSD and Windows. Different DAC policies and models have been proposed in the literature. However, the most popular discretionary model is the Access Matrix Model.
