Course Description

Sometimes the owner of an object is not, in fact, the one to determine who should get access to that object; rather, it is an institutional policy that dictates that decision. This form of access control is known as mandatory access control, and it is frequently used in business and military settings. In this course, you will review various forms of mandatory access control policies and their implementations, including multilevel security, commercial, and role-based access control schemes.

It is recommended to only take this course if you have completed “Systems Security,” “Authenticating Machines,” “Authenticating Humans,” and “Discretionary Access Control,” or have equivalent experience.
