Describe mandatory access control.

What will be an ideal response?


Mandatory Access Control (MAC) is a requirement in some settings. When used, it is structured and coordinated with both a data classification scheme and a personnel clearance scheme. Users and data owners have little or no control over access to the information resources being controlled by the MAC environment. A MAC will use a data classification scheme that assigns each collection or type of information to a sensitivity level. Each user is also rated with a sensitivity level called a clearance that will specify the level of information he or she may access.
