Abstract
Systems and methods for role-based access control to computing resources are presented. In an example embodiment, a request to perform a type of access of a computing resource is received via a communication network from a process executing on a client device. Using a data store storing process identifiers and associated access control information, access control information associated with the requesting process is identified based on a process identifier of the requesting process. Based on the access control information associated with the requesting process, a determination is made whether the requesting process is allowed to perform the requested type of access of the computing resource. The request is processed based on the requesting process being allowed to perform the requested type of access of the computing resource.
