What does implicit authorization allow a user to do?

Implicit authorization allows a user to obtain permission through a primary resource. This concept is based on the idea that access can be granted based on relations to other resources. For instance, if a user has access to a main resource, they might automatically gain certain permissions to related resources, thereby simplifying access management.

This approach is often used in environments where users need to work with various interconnected resources without explicitly requesting access each time. It enhances usability by allowing users to move seamlessly between resources while retaining necessary security controls.

In contrast, accessing all system resources directly implies a level of unrestricted access that is not typically allowed within secure systems. Gaining access without any prior permissions contradicts the fundamental principles of authorization and security protocols. Requesting access every time for different resources suggests a more cumbersome approach to resource management, which is less efficient than implicit authorization.
