Which term describes the role responsible for assigning user roles and managing access attributes?

• A. End Users
• B. Application Owners
• C. Access Proxy Solutions
• D. Entitlement Warehouse

Answer: (B)

Ownership of who has which permissions within an application is defined by the Application Owner. This role creates and maintains the authorization model for the app, defines the available roles, assigns those roles to users or groups, and manages access attributes (such as department or project) that influence access decisions. End users receive access but do not establish policies. Access proxy solutions enforce the defined policies, but they do not determine who should have which permissions. An entitlement warehouse is a repository for entitlements rather than the role that assigns them.
