In cybersecurity, authorization and access control have long been cornerstones for protecting data, systems, and users. The concept of right data to right users has been a big part of how companies have tried to design their systems. These concepts were initially designed for mainframe environments, then adapted for client-server systems, on-premises big data, and later for distributed cloud computing. Each evolution addressed new challenges, but generative AI now pushes these frameworks even further, requiring significant modifications to meet its unique demands.
