Abstract
A method of controlling access to resource objects in a cloud-based storage system, and application server therefor, includes defining role-based access scopes and user-based virtual scopes for resources in the cloud-based storage system. A role-based access scope is used to define actions that may be performed with a requested resource based on a role of the user making the request. A virtual scope is used to define actions that may be performed with a requested resource based on the user making the request. The virtual scope is used to restrict access to a resource to one or more of the members assigned to a role.
