    22== Role-Based Access Control ==
    3 Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) will be used by ORBIT to ''control'' each user's ''access'' to ORBIT resources based on his or her ''role''.  RBAC promises simpler administration of access control than maintaining access control lists for each resource.  It enables an organization to enforce separation of duty, the principle of least privilege and timely revocation of trust.  Because it is based on a formal model, a given an assignment of users to roles may be checked for consistency with the organization's security design goals.
