Overview
As organizations adopt Zero Trust strategies, legacy access models fall short. This course explores Policy-Based Access Control, a dynamic authorization framework that eliminates the need to assign explicit rights to static groups. You will learn how this approach evaluates real-time attributes across subjects, objects, actions, and environments to securely grant or deny access.
Instructor Dean Bushmiller breaks down the core architecture of externalized authorization management. You will examine critical components like the Policy Enforcement Point, Policy Decision Point, and Policy Information Point. Viewers will discover how these elements interact to process complex access requests, retrieve missing metadata, and seamlessly enforce least privilege across the enterprise.
