Abstract

A method for servicing document search requests. The method includes receiving, by a document management service, a document search query from a requesting user, and injecting, into the document search query, a user access vector. The user access vector specifies, for the requesting user, access control lists that are associated with the requesting user. The method further includes identifying, in a document repository, documents that match the document search query with the injected user access vector. A matching document requires a match of terms in the search query with terms in the matching document, and a match of at least one access control list specified in the matching document and at least one of the access control lists specified in the user access vector.
