ExiteCMSv8 RBAC model

The RBAC model as used by ExiteCMS looks (and probably is) quite complex. This is because it has to cater for all sorts of applications, from the simple to the very complex enterprise class developments.

The model supports both the traditional RBAC model (using roles, and users and tasks assigned to roles) and a model in which group memberships can be utilized. The model even allows you to assign tasks and roles to groups, which allows you to group roles so they can be assigned to a user very quickly. Both roles and groups are implemented using a nested tree algorithm, to provide hierarchy (super-roles, groups in groups).
