Class CIM_AccessControlInformation
extends CIM_LogicalElement

CIM_AccessControlInformation provides, through its properties and its associations, the specification of the access rights granted to a set of subject users to a set of target resources. The AccessControlInformation class is weak to the system (e.g., Computer System or Administrative Domain) for which the access controls apply. This class is deprecated in lieu of two others: AuthorizedPrivilege (defining specific access details) and SecuritySensitivity (defining individual security levels). The reasons for this are: 1. More specific access details are defined in Privilege (the superclass of AuthorizedPrivilege); and, 2. SecuritySensitivity allows security levels to be applied to other elements than access control information.

DeprecatedstringCIM_AuthorizedPrivilege.ActivityQualifiers
DescriptionstringThe AccessQualifier property is an array of string values may be used to further qualify the type of access for which the corresponding permission applies. For example, it may be used to specify a set of parameters that are permitted or denied in conjunction with the corresponding AccessType entry point name.

DeprecatedstringCIM_AuthorizedPrivilege.Activities
DescriptionstringThe AccessType property is an array of string values that specifies the type of access for which the corresponding permission applies. For example, it can be used to specify a generic access such as 'Read-only', 'Read/Write', etc. for file or record access control or it can be used to specifiy an entry point name for service access control.

DeprecatedstringCIM_AuthorizedPrivilege
DescriptionstringThe Permission property is an array of string values indicating the permission that applies to the corresponding AccessType and AccessQualifier array values. The values may be extended in subclasses to provide more specific access controls. This property is deprecated in lieu of the general AuthorizedPrivilege class. This is because the Permissions, 'Access' and 'Deny', are addressed by the PrivilegeGranted property, while 'Manage' maps to specific activities with their corresponding qualifiers and formats.
