Mandatory access controls (MAC) are structured and coordinated within a data classification scheme that rates each collection of information as well as each user. MAC uses predefined security labels to determine the level of sensitivity of the information and enforces access controls based on these labels. Lattice-based access controls (LBAC) use mathematical models to determine the level of access a user should have based on a combination of labels. Role-based access controls (RBAC) assign access based on an individual's job function or role, while rule-based access controls (RBAC) use a set of predefined rules to determine access. However, in this scenario, MAC best describes the controls that are structured and coordinated within a data classification scheme.
