Then, prepare a report addressing positive and negative aspects of each access control method. This information will be presented to the Board of Directors at their next meeting. Further, the CSO would like your help in determining the best access control method for the organization.Write a three to five page paper in which you:

    3. Suggest methods to mitigate the negative aspects for MAC, DAC, and RBAC.
