Abstract
A method and system for managing role-based access control of token data using token profiles having predefined roles is described. In one method, a token processing system (TPS) assigns a TPS client a token profile for a group of multiple tokens, the token profile being stored in a profile data structure. The token profile specifies at least one of multiple predefined roles for the TPS client, each role associated with predefined access to entries of a token database. The TPS receives a request from the TPS client over a network to perform an operation on the entries of the token database that correspond to the group, and allows the TPS client access to the token database to perform the operation when permitted by the predefined roles specified in the token profile on the entries of the token database that correspond to the group identified by the token profile.
