Abstract
Systems, methods, and machine-readable media are disclosed for providing conditional grants of permission in an externally configured security policy. In one embodiment, a method is provided which comprises reading a condition clause from a grant statement defined in the security policy. The grant statement can cause the granting of permission for a user to access a requested resource. One or more constraints on the grant statement can be determined based on the condition clause. Permission can be granted to access the requested resource based on the one or more constraints.
