Evaluation: Directory Access Control using Security Labels

Isode's M-Vault supports Directory Access Control using Security Labels.
Security Labels and Rule Based Access Control (RBAC) are described in three Isode whitepapers:

Security Labels and Clearances (essential background) are described in Access Control using Security Labels & Security Clearance
Handling security clearance, which is important for RBAC and for other applications using access control based on security labels is described in Managing and securely determining Security Clearance.
Isode's security policy infrastructure and capabilities are described in Isode Security Policy, Security Label and Security Clearance Infrastructure.
How security Labels can be used to provide security and management benefits to directory services is described in Using Security Labels for Directory Access Control and Replication Control.
