Role-based Access

Amygdala XDR® Role-based Access

The Amygdala XDR® Role-based Access (RBA) module allows your administrators to define access control policies for users and groups based on their roles or functions within an organization. This module enables organizations to restrict access to sensitive data and functions to only authorized users.

Technical Description

It works by defining roles, which are groups of permissions that determine what actions a user or group can perform within the system. Permissions can be granted or denied for specific resources, such as files, directories, or applications.

The RBA module can be configured through the Amygdala XDR® API or the Amygdala XDR® management application, which provides a web interface for managing roles and permissions. The module is flexible enough to allow administrators to define complex access control policies and can be integrated with other Amygdala XDR® modules, such as the File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) and Vulnerability Detection (VulnDetect) modules.

Benefits & Modules

The Role-based Access (RBA) module in Amygdala XDR® offers several features, including:

Role-based access control

The RBA module enables your administrators to define roles and permissions for users and groups based on their roles or functions within an organization. This allows for fine-grained control over who can access specific resources and functions within the system.

Granular permission management

The module allows your administrators to grant or deny permissions for specific resources, such as files, directories, or applications. This helps to ensure that users only have access to the resources they need to perform their job functions.

Audit trail

The RBA module provides an audit trail of all access requests and actions taken by users. This helps to ensure accountability and provides a record of who accessed what resources and when.

Integration with other Amygdala XDR® modules

The RBA module is integrated with other Amygdala XDR® modules, such as the File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) and Vulnerability Detection (VulnDetect) modules. This allows for a comprehensive security solution that can detect and respond to threats across the entire system.

Flexible configuration

The RBA module can be configured through the Amygdala XDR® API or the Amygdala XDR® management application, which provides a web interface for managing roles and permissions. This provides administrators with the flexibility to define complex access control policies that meet the needs of their organization.

Technology-Supported, Protocols

The Role-based Access (RBA) module in Amygdala XDR® uses various technologies and protocols to manage user access control. Some of the technologies and protocols used by the RBA module are:

Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)

The RBA module integrates with LDAP servers to manage user authentication and authorization. This allows for centralized management of user accounts and access control policies.

Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML)

The RBA module supports SAML for single sign-on (SSO) authentication. This allows users to log in once and access multiple systems without having to re-enter their credentials.

Transport Layer Security (TLS)

The RBA module uses TLS to encrypt network traffic and ensure secure communication between components.

JavaScript Object Notation (JSON)

The RBA module uses JSON to store role and permission information in configuration files and databases.

Representational State Transfer (REST) API

The RBA module provides a REST API for managing roles and permissions. This allows administrators to automate access control tasks and integrate the RBA module with other systems.

OpenAPI Specification

The RBA module uses the OpenAPI Specification to describe the REST API and provide documentation for developers.
