Abstract
The present disclosure describes an architecture and design of Unauthorized-Blocking-Role (UAB). UAB is a mechanism which prevents higher privileged users of cloud-hosted software from performing unauthorized activities on protected objects, such as management objects. UAB works by periodically monitoring the permissions of customer users on key management objects in an object hierarchy in management software. If a customer user is detected to have privileges higher than the user should have on those objects, UAB applies restrictive role-based access controls (RBACs) on the user. Similarly, UAB also monitors protected principals and protected roles to ensure that their privileges are not modified by a customer user.
