Pagasikontroll
Pagasikontroll is a term used in information security to describe a page-level access control mechanism. It refers to the practice of enforcing permissions at the level of individual web pages, documents, or sections within a digital repository or application, enabling finer-grained control than traditional folder- or document-level permissions. The concept is commonly applied in content management systems, document repositories, and collaborative platforms to support privacy, confidentiality, and regulatory compliance.
Implementation models include:
- Static per-page access control lists (ACLs) where each page carries explicit read and write permissions.
- Attribute-based access control (ABAC), where access decisions derive from user attributes, resource attributes, and environmental conditions.
- Policy-based access control (PBAC), using centralized policies that evaluate requests against defined rules.
- Architectures with a policy decision point and a policy enforcement point to separate decision making from
- Enables granular security for sensitive sections or data within a larger resource.
- Improves compliance with data-handling and privacy regulations.
- Facilitates secure collaboration in multi-user and multi-tenant environments.
- Requires additional metadata management and storage for permissions.
- Introduces processing overhead and potential latency in content delivery.
- Increases complexity of policy authoring, testing, and auditing.
