Synopsis
otdfctl policy attributes values
Description
Attribute values are the individual units tagged on TDFs containing Resource Data.
They are mapped to entitle person and non-person entities through Subject Mappings, to varied terms for tagging providers through Resource Mappings, to individual keys and Key Access Servers through KAS Grants, and more.
They are fully-qualified through the FQN structure https://<namespace>/attr/<definition name>/value/<value>
, and the presence
of one or more values on a piece of Resource Data (a TDF) determines an entity's access to the data through a combination
of entitlements and the attribute definition rule evaluation.
In other words, Attribute Values are the atomic units that drive access control relation of Data -> Entities and vice versa.
Values are contextualized by Attribute Definitions within Namespaces, and only have logical meaning as part of a Definition.
Giving data multiple Attribute Values across the same or multiple Definitions/Namespaces will require all of the definition rules to be satisfied by an Entity's mapped Entitlements to result in key release, decryption, and resulting access to TDF'd data.
