Explanation

Role-based access control (RBAC) is an access control mechanism that grants permissions and access rights to users based on their roles or job functions within an organization. In RBAC, access rights are associated with specific roles, and users are assigned to these roles based on their job responsibilities or functions. Users inherit permissions associated with their roles, making it easier to manage access across an organization and ensure that individuals have the necessary permissions to perform their job duties without granting unnecessary access.
