AC-03 Access Enforcement
Control statement
Enforce approved authorizations for logical access to information and system resources in accordance with applicable access control policies.
Guidance
Access control policies control access between active entities or subjects (i.e., users or processes acting on behalf of users) and passive entities or objects (i.e., devices, files, records, domains) in organizational systems. In addition to enforcing authorized access at the system level and recognizing that systems can host many applications and services in support of mission and business functions, access enforcement mechanisms can also be employed at the application and service level to provide increased information security and privacy. In contrast to logical access controls that are implemented within the system, physical access controls are addressed by the controls in the Physical and Environmental Protection ( PE ) family.
Implementation
OpenBao SPIFFE JWT auth and policies (canary)
Access to secrets is enforced by OpenBao ACL policies attached to the JWT role: agent 15-2041.00 can read only secret/data/canary/agents/15-2041.00/*. Partial, manual: declared config, not checked live by the job.
Status: partial.
