Enforcement
On this page
In Permguard, enforcement is handled by the Policy Enforcement Point (PEP).
Its role is to verify whether an identity
has permission to perform specific actions
on resources
within a given namespace
.
In the MagicFarmacia sample the application enforces a permission check to determine whether the platform-admin
actor can view
a subscription.
Enforcement
To enforce access control, the PEP queries the Policy Decision Point (PDP) for a decision.
