ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling access to information, which includes a plurality of data objects, on a computer system being accessible to a plurality of users is provided which generally comprises providing an access right for each relationship between a user and a data object, wherein each user can have a plurality of relationships to each data object, determining each relationship between the user and the data object when a user requests information about a data object, determining the security classification for each relationship between the user and the data object, and then granting the user access to the data object if one of the security classifications for all the relationships is equal to or greater than the security classification of the data object, and denying the user access to the data object if the security classifications for all the relationships is less than the security classification of the data object.
