System and method for providing entity-based security

摘要

A system and method for providing entity-based security is provided. A set of access control rules are configured and converted to a set of Java classes. Upon receipt of an access request for a data object representing an entity from a client, a proxy interface is provided to the client. The proxy receives an access request for a data object for purposes of enforcing entity-based security. A set of access control rules are checked to determine whether the user has the appropriate access rights for the request.
