Intent-Based Authorization

Definition

Intent-Based Authorization is a security paradigm where access rights and permissions are granted based on the user’s or agent’s declared intention for an action, rather than static roles or predefined rules. This dynamic approach evaluates the context and purpose of a request to determine if it aligns with authorized behaviors. It offers a more flexible and adaptive security framework, particularly suitable for complex, autonomous systems. This method enhances granular control over system access.
