Discretionary access control models
Discretionary access control models are an IT security standard that is based on a framework granting users the ability to make changes to files and directories within their file system while maintaining the integrity of that system. The model provides a way to define which users can make changes which objects, and under what conditions.
The discretionary access control model is made up of two parts: the principle of least privilege, and the principle of separation of duties.
With the principle of least privilege, each user has only enough rights to do what is necessary for them to perform their job tasks; for example, an admin would have rights to view but not modify any files or directories on a server, while a regular user would have rights to read/write/delete any files in their home folder. To enable this, each user gets their own account with restricted privileges so they don't have access to other accounts' data; if a user needs more permissions than what their account has by default, they will need another account with more privileges. With the principle of separation of duties, one person cannot be given administrative privileges without also giving another type of privilege; for example, one admin could not be given full control without someone else being granted administrator rights as well.
