ABSTRACT:
A variety of processes, e.g., electronic mail, word processing, database applications, etc., reside on a system, e.g., an operating system. Independent levels of security are maintained for the different processes without requiring the user to pass a security test to gain access to each process. The system includes a directory of system identifiers assigned to users. Each process includes a directory of process-specific identifiers for users of that process. The system identifiers and process identifiers are associated in a predetermined manner. Therefore, a user may gain access to a process only when the user's system identifier is associated with the desired process-specific identifier.
