Abstract

An authorization device is configured to authorize access to a resource. The authorization device receives an authorization request to authorize a client device to perform an operation on the resource associated with a data system and compare an access characteristic associated with the resource with a policy associated with the resource. The authorization device generates a first message when a result of the comparison indicates that the client device is authorized to perform the operation on the resource and generates a second message when a result of the comparison indicates that the client device is unauthorized to perform the operation on the resource.
