Group-Based Privileges: A system of assigning permissions and access rights to users based on their membership in specific groups. This is commonly used in network security to control access to resources and ensure that only authorized users can access certain systems or data. Examples include assigning different levels of access to different departments within a company or allowing members of a specific group to access certain files or applications.
