Abstract

The disclosed computer-implemented method for dynamic access control over shared resources may include (1) detecting an attempt by a user to access a resource via a computing environment, (2) identifying a risk level of the user attempting to access the resource, (3) identifying a sensitivity level of the resource, (4) identifying a risk level of the computing environment through which the user is attempting to access the resource, (5) determining an overall risk level for the attempt to access the resource based at least in part on (A) the risk level of the user, (B) the sensitivity level of the resource, and (C) the risk level of the computing environment, and then (6) determining, based at least in part on the overall risk level, whether to grant the user access to the resource via the computing environment. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
