Clear explanations, amazing video! Thanks!

[@ErikWilde]

Thank you for watching!

[@RITCHIECOREY1]

Excellently laid out presentation! Very approachable and immediately helpful in unraveling my confusion about where exactly does RBAC fit into the overall access model :-)

Great topic,
Could you do a video with 'real life' examples & how they would be implemented in a SQL database?

I liked your video halfway through watching it. Good work.

that's good to hear! thanks, alexander!

[@MubashirullahD]

Fantastic video.

[@niioizin]

thanks for the explanation. It helps immensely.

[@ezenwajoy7748]

Thank you so much Mr. Erick for this seamless explanation on RBAC. My question is, is RBAC a software or a programme. what is it exactly? Thank you.

[@ErikWilde]

It's neither nor, @ezenwa. It's just a model of hoe to manage access to resources. It's implemented by many different software vendors,

[@noelnyatsine1084]

These functions come in-corperated in different softwares. eg an accounting software

[@mahdizarepoor8964]

simple and brief. thanks

[@ErikWilde]

Thanks, much appreciated!

[@jayanthpatki7845]

I'd assume that one role could be shared by multiple users. So that makes it a many-many relationship. Same applies to the next two relations.

[@ErikWilde]

right, @jayanth. and it's probably even a bit of an anti-pattern if a role is only assigned to one user. after all, separating roles and users is the main idea behind RBAC.

Thank's bro! It has helped me a lot!

Excellent .. Slide online link is broken. Could you please share the updated link or a copy? Thanks

[@ErikWilde]

Thanks for the feedback. The link isn't broken but my web server is old and doesn't support HTTPS. Today's web isn't all that supportive anymore of this old access method, but sadly that's all I have available for now.

[@jamesstat]

Really good thanks

[@tomatte99]

looks like a many to many relation ship
user - role
role - permission

[@ErikWilde]

Exactly. This is what makes the model so powerful when you have many resources and many users. The role is the intermediary layer to model the relationships in a more scalable way.

[@andrii.spivak]

Is any video about ABAC model ?

[@ErikWilde]

There's isn't an ABAC video at the moment, but it's a good idea! Essentially, ABAC is a generalization of RBAC where attributes can be used for controlling access that can represent anything (including roles).

[@soodshubham7671]

Thank you Sir

[@malebeauty]

Thanks

[@AWaterKnight]

Is there a difference between capabilities and resources here? Because in capability lists, a capability denotes a pair of object and access right.
In the multi mapping between permissions and capabilities, it becomes blurry, because a permission could be atomic. The permission could also be viewed as for the individual resource/capability, in the example, one permission could govern one system, the other system could be a separate permission.
