A method and apparatus for providing an extensible grouping mechanism for security applications for use in a computer system. Groups may be established and maintained by non-system administrators and used to control actions that are taken with respect to objects, such as files and other resources. The groups and associated security functions may be implemented across a plurality of different software products and optionally integrated into an existing security mechanism maintained by system administrators. Software products used in the system may be arranged to request authorization to perform requested actions with respect to objects access to which is not controlled by a systems administrator.
