Brief Description

Getting Started

The ABAC assembly is used to work with attribute-based access control method in the Fore and Fore.NET languages.

Having studied this section you will be able to:

  • Add and edit properties of subject and object attributes.

  • Create an attribute-based access control structure.

  • Check subject access permissions to object.

For details about assembly features see the About the ABAC Assembly section.

Assembly resources are described in the following subsections:

Before studying the ABAC assembly it is recommended to see the sections: Development Environment, Fore Specification, Fore.NET Specification.

To work with attribute-based access control method, see the sections: Administration and Access Control, Selecting Access Control Methods and Their Setup, Setting Up Attribute-Based Access Control Method, Adding Access Check Rules and Policies.

Attribute-based access control settings that are determined via the interface of the Security Manager tool can be determined using the ABAC assembly. It is also available to create a separate attribute-based access control structure to determine object access permissions that will not be displayed in the tool interface.
