Spudinski Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 (edited) I'm currently busy thinking of ways to amend an access control system to the engine. But, I'm at a cross-road as to which approach will be best. The thing is, there's no need to make it over-complicated - but on the same point, it does need to be scalable. I was thinking of a Role-based Access Control system, NIST has a pretty good standardization for it here. From that article, I really like the Flat RBAC as it's simple, yet it can be improved on demand. I've drawn up a simple diagram of how it would work: The database isn't mapped here, but that should be the "simple" part of it all. Does anyone have any suggestions/comment for[/on] this?

Aventro Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Yes, that would make sense to integrate. It's something similiar like Drupal, right? However, I believe it would be a efficient and easy approach and if well integrated could be a really great feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
