It is aligned with the three main security principles; confidentiality, integrity and availability. This alignment ensures that data and resources within

various access control methods used by Operating Systems (OS) to control user access to files on a computer and what they can do once they have gained access. In this first section I will look at methods such as Access Control Lists(ACL’s), Capabilities and Encrypting file systems(EFS) and which Operating Systems use these as well as the advantages and disadvantages they have over each other. The second part of my report will focus on one OS and explain in detail the methods it uses to control file

The purpose of access control, and the rights and privileges is to give users and objects associated data and records in the database. Objects are tables, views, rows and columns. The goal of this design is to manage and secure database and assigning such as user name and password. Management procedures include reading, insert, update and delete or execute stored procedures.
