SECURE PRECONFIGURED PROFILE FOR ROLE-BASED ACCESS CONTROL SETUP

Abstract:

Described are techniques for a secure roles-based access control (RBAC) setup during boot of a connected computational system. The techniques include a method comprising deploying a preconfigured default user profile during booting of a computational system. The techniques further include creating, using the preconfigured default user profile, a plurality of user profiles having administrator and/or root authorities, where each of the plurality of user profiles is associated with a respective custom password. The techniques further include completing booting of the computational system using the plurality of user profiles having the administrator and/or root authorities.
