COMPUTER IMPLEMENTED METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MANAGEMENT OF NON-BINARY PRIVILEGES IN A STRUCTURED USER ENVIRONMENT

摘要

Methods and systems to manage permissions in a structured user-environment which provide a User Interface (UI) that provides a simple, intuitive administration to apply permissions at the user and group level to data in the structured user-environment. The UI also provides feedback to the administrator as to the inheritance path of each user and/or group as well as links between permissions, allowing the administrator to determine how a user or group was granted or denied access to a permission or resource.
