# Class CIM_AccessControlInformation
extends CIM_LogicalElement

CIM_AccessControlInformation provides, through its properties and its associations, the specification of the access rights granted to a set of subject users to a set of target resources. The AccessControlInformation class is weak to the system (e.g., Computer System or Administrative Domain) for which the access controls apply. This class is deprecated in lieu of two others: AuthorizedPrivilege (defining specific access details) and SecuritySensitivity (defining individual security levels). The reasons for this are: 1. More specific access details are defined in Privilege (the superclass of AuthorizedPrivilege); and, 2. SecuritySensitivity allows security levels to be applied to other elements than access control information.

### Local Class Properties

Name | Data Type | Default Value | Qualifiers
--- | --- | --- | ---
Name | Data Type | Value
CreationClassName | string |
Deprecated | string | No value
Description | string | CreationClassName indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.
Key | boolean | true
MaxLen | uint32 | 256
Name | string |
Deprecated | string | CIM_AuthorizedPrivilege.InstanceID
Description | string | The Name property defines the unique label, in the context of the hosting system, by which the AccessControlInformation is known.
Key | boolean | true
MaxLen | uint32 | 256
Override | string | Name
SecurityClassification | string |
Deprecated | string | CIM_SecuritySensitivity.SecurityLevel
Description | string | The SecurityClassification property specifies a named level of security associated with the AccessControlInformation, e.g., 'Confidential', 'Top Secret', etc.
SystemCreationClassName | string |
Deprecated | string | No value
Description | string | Hosting system creation class name.
Key | boolean | true
MaxLen | uint32 | 256

AccessQualifier | string[] |
ArrayType | string | Indexed
Deprecated | string | CIM_AuthorizedPrivilege.ActivityQualifiers
Description | string | The AccessQualifier property is an array of string values may be used to further qualify the type of access for which the corresponding permission applies. For example, it may be used to specify a set of parameters that are permitted or denied in conjunction with the corresponding AccessType entry point name.
ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_AccessControlInformation.AccessType, CIM_AccessControlInformation.Permission
AccessType | string[] |
ArrayType | string | Indexed
Deprecated | string | CIM_AuthorizedPrivilege.Activities
Description | string | The AccessType property is an array of string values that specifies the type of access for which the corresponding permission applies. For example, it can be used to specify a generic access such as 'Read-only', 'Read/Write', etc. for file or record access control or it can be used to specifiy an entry point name for service access control.
ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_AccessControlInformation.AccessQualifier, CIM_AccessControlInformation.Permission

Deprecated | string | CIM_AuthorizedPrivilege

Description

string

The Permission property is an array of string values indicating the permission that applies to the corresponding AccessType and AccessQualifier array values. The values may be extended in subclasses to provide more specific access controls. This property is deprecated in lieu of the general AuthorizedPrivilege class. This is because the Permissions, 'Access' and 'Deny', are addressed by the PrivilegeGranted property, while 'Manage' maps to specific activities with their corresponding qualifiers and formats.
