Access Control Systems

What is the primary purpose of an Access Control List (ACL) in networking?

• To encrypt data packets

• To filter network traffic

• To manage user passwords

• To monitor network performance

Which of the following is NOT a type of access control?

• Mandatory Access Control (MAC)

• Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

• Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC)

Which access control model is based on predefined rules and policies?

• Discretionary Access Control (DAC)

• Mandatory Access Control (MAC)

• Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

• Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC)

What is a key feature of Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)?

• Access is based on user identity

• Access is based on user roles

• Access is based on user location

• Access is based on user preferences

Which of the following is an example of an access control policy?
