Access Mediation

Access mediation is the process of granting or denying specific requests to: 1) obtain and use information and related information processing services; and 2) enter specific physical facilities (e.g., Federal buildings, military establishments, border crossing entrances). Access mediation decisions should enforce least privilege by granting access for scoped durations to prevent privilege creep and, where applicable, implement just-in-time (JIT) access. Denial decisions may prevent initial access or terminate access that has already been granted, ensuring continuous enforcement of security policies.

Local File Permissions

Local file permissions is the systematic process of defining, implementing, and managing access control policies that dictate user permissions for accessing files on a local system through the configuration of operating system functionality.

Network Access Mediation

Network access mediation is the control method for authorizing access to a system by a user (or a process acting on behalf of a user) communicating through a network, including a local area network, a wide area network, and the Internet.
