ACCESS CONTROL FOR A DATA OBJECT INCLUDING DATA WITH DIFFERENT ACCESS REQUIREMENTS

Abstract:

A computer system controls access to data. A request is received from an entity to access data comprising a primary data object corresponding to a physical item. One or more secondary data objects included in the primary data object are identified, wherein the one or more secondary data objects correspond to physical components of the physical item. Access requirements for the primary data object and the one or more secondary data objects are determined. In response to determining that the access requirements are satisfied by the entity, the entity is granted access to the data comprising the primary data object and the one or more secondary data objects. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for controlling access to data in substantially the same manner described above.
