Overview#

Entitlement is at least closely related to a privilege

To explain an Entitlement please refer to our Entitlement Example

Entitlements typically have Entitlement parameter values. As an from our Entitlement Example the entitlement:
"Access to the Building they work in" might have a multi-valued attribute to Identity which Buildings the entity "Works In"

These Entitlement parameter values are often from an Attribute Value associated to the Digital Identity

Roles are collections of one or more Entitlement(s).

We typically strive to utilize the Access Control Model called Adaptive Policy-based Access Management (APAM) when implementing Roles and Entitlement.
