Abstract
The present invention provides a method for controlling an entity's access to a resource based on observed behavior of the entity. The method assigns the entity a default authorization meta-tag. The method monitors the entity's behavior and updates the entity's meta-tag based upon the observed behavior. Accordingly, dynamic behavior-based access control is achieved.
