The described technology relates to determining an access permission of a host. An example method includes performing an access check by a storage server in response to receiving an access request from the host and acquiring security information associated with the host from a management server by the storage server in response to passing the access check. In addition, the method can include determining a risk score of the host by the storage server based on the security information and determining an access permission of the host by the storage server based on the risk score of the host and a risk threshold of the type of access. Beneficially, an accurate assessment of the risk of access of the host is achieved, which avoids security problems caused by the security risk of the host, while allowing the host to gain maximum access permission without compromising overall security.

Method, device, and computer program product for determining access permission of host

Access permission is enabled. For example, in response to receiving an access request for a target file from a first client, a type of an access permission contained in the request is determined. Then, a first type of access permission is determined that can be assigned to the first client if it is determined that the contained type is in a set of reference types. Further, it may be determined that a second type of access permission applicable to be assigned to the target file. It can then be determined, from the first type and the second type, a target type of an access permission to be assigned to the first client. As a result, the probability of assigned access permissions being interrupted can be reduced, the performance of a client and a server is increased, efficiency is increased, and the user experience is improved.
