Example Dynamic role PEP
Dynamic role Enforcement Point
Use case example
We want to define a policy to restrict access to the Soffid console user's page ( > Administration > Resources > Users).
The users who are assigned to the SOFFID_RRHH role (from this point forward: end-users) will have limitations to perform some actions.
- The end-users only be able to query the information about the users who belong to the same primary group that them.
- The end-users only be able to update the users with internal user type.
- The end-users could not delete any user record.
Policy set
We define a policy set that will apply to end-users with access to a specific resource who has been assigned a specific role.
That policy set has three policies, one for each operation that we want to manage.
Policies
We can define a policy for each operation, to permit or deny access. Also, we can define a variable which contains the end-user primary group.
Policy1
The policy can permit or deny access to end-users to query users depending on the defined rules.
Rules
