About Access Control (Data Security)
Data access control is a technique used to regulate employees’ access to files in an organization. It involves leveraging the principle of least privilege (POLP), i.e., managing employees' access rights based on their roles in the organization, and defining and limiting what data they have access to.

Access control systems come in three variations: Discretionary Access Control (DAC), Managed Access Control (MAC), and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC).

Why is Access Control (Data Security) important?
Access control is a security technique that regulates who or what can view or use resources in a computing environment. It is a fundamental concept in security that minimizes risk to the business or organization. Physical access control limits access to campuses, buildings, rooms, and physical IT assets.
