autorizados

Autorizados is a term used in Spanish to refer to people or entities that have been granted permission or power to perform specific actions or to access certain resources. The authorization can be formal or informal and may be established by contracts, company policies, laws, or administrative decisions. The concept emphasizes the scope, duration, and limits of the granted authority.

In legal and administrative contexts, an autorizado is someone who acts on behalf of another person or entity within the bounds of the authorization. This can include a mandatario, apoderado, or representante who is empowered to sign documents, make decisions, or carry out procedures. In corporate and financial settings, the designation often applies to employees, agents, or partners who are permitted to perform tasks such as approving purchases, authorizing payments, or accessing confidential information.

Common examples include authorization to pick up a package, to authorize medical treatment, or to access a secure system. In information security, “usuarios autorizados” are those with verified permission to use a network or view data, while “usuarios no autorizados” are denied access.

The status of being autorizado is typically defined by written policies, contracts, or regulatory frameworks and can be revised, limited, or revoked by the granting authority. Compliance, traceability, and accountability are important aspects, with records usually kept to document who is authorized to act and under what conditions.
