Usage Control

Glossary Page

Usage control is focused on setting and enforcing limitations on how data can (or cannot) be handled, rather than controlling data access. Its main objective is to regulate data processing requirements, known as obligations. In contrast to access control, which deals with granting or denying access to data, usage control comes into play after access has been granted, with the goal of ensuring that data usage restrictions are adhered to. The ultimate aim of usage control is to link policies to the data being shared.
