RBAC vs. ABAC: What is the difference between access control models?

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) are two common models used for system authorization. RBAC is based on roles assigned to users with varying levels of permissions, while ABAC uses attributes such as user, resource, and environmental details to determine access. The choice between RBAC and ABAC depends on factors like company size and security needs. In general, larger companies or those requiring more detailed permissions may benefit from ABAC. However, a combination of both models can also be used for optimal security.
