Windows Access Control
- After a user is authenticated,the windows OS determines if the user has the correct permissions to access a resource.
- In the access control model,users and groups (security principals) have assigned rights and permissions that inform OS hat user and permissions that inform OS what each user and group can do.
- Security principals perform actions on objects.
- Shared resources use access controls lists (ACLs) to assign permissions to enforce access control in two ways:--
1.Deny access to an unauthorized users and group.
2.Set we defined limits on the access that is provide to unauthorized users an groups.
