Subject: Re: [xacml] ABAC Definition
During the call there was some discussion of the definition of ABAC. While as I pointed out during the call, our concern is XACML not ABAC per se, XACML is frequently cited as an exemplar of ABAC and further in order to have a clear understanding during our debates, we need to have at least rough agreement on what we mean by the words we use.
A quick search for "ABAC definition" produced these results, among others. ("abac" can refer to a certain type of graph.)
All of these seem to correspond to my idea of what the definition is.
