  • Method and apparatus for creating custom access control hierarchies
    Patent number: 9124602
    Abstract: The Custom Access Controller adds a custom security hierarchy to the organizational data in the View Processor of WEBSPHERE Virtual Member Manager. Whenever an entity or application attempts to access a resources the access control engine starts the View Processor to identify the organizational data and assigned security policy for the resource. The assigned security policy is applied to a delegated administration path which is part of the delegated administration hierarchy but includes the appropriate path and security policy for the resource. The delegated administration path is sent to an access control engine that grants or denies access to the resource. A View Processor Interface allows network administrators to create and modify custom security hierarchies.
