based security is that privileges are assigned to
defined categories of users (known as roles)
rather than to individual users. When a user is as-
signed to one of these roles, he or she is assigned
the set of privileges associated with that role. A
user who is not assigned to a role does not have
any privileges. In “Saraswati”, a role describes a
defined set of responsibilities within the organiza-
tion, for example, a attendance clerk, Help desk
representative. A privilege authorizes the user to
