Summary: Fine-grained Access Control over nested structures
Key: RANGER-3828
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-3828
Project: Ranger
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: plugins, Ranger
Reporter: Barbara Eckman
It would be nice to be able to do fine-grained access control (FGA) over nested
structures, e.g., the JSON responses of API calls. This requires the
individual attributes in a JSON object to be first-class metadata objects which
can be tagged and on which policies can be written. We have built a plugin and
the corresponding Apache Atlas metadata structures to support TBAC/RBAC/ABAC
FGA over JSON structures. Our instigating use case was FGA over the JSON
responses of API calls, but this plugin has potential value anywhere FGA over
the individual attributes of nested structures is needed, eg JSON messages read
from Kafka topics.
