  • Identifying and resolving conflicts in access permissions during migration of data and user accounts
    Patent number: 12585805
    Abstract: Embodiments provide for identifying and resolving conflicts in access permissions migrated data by receiving a set of mappings including path mappings of a hierarchy of data objects on the source system to locations on the target system for migrated data objects. Based on the received set of mappings, permissions controlling access to data objects of the hierarchy of data objects on the source system can be translated to permissions controlling access to the migrated data objects on the target system for one or more user accounts on the target system. One or more conflicts can be detected between permissions on the source system and permissions on the target system. A conflict resolution strategy can be selected from a plurality of conflict resolution strategies and the selected conflict resolution strategy can be applied to the permissions controlling access to the migrated data objects on the target system.
