Rule-based access control is used to restrict system access to authorized users based on a set of rules defined by the system or network administrator. If a user's request does not match the pre-established rules, access to the system or network is denied. The other options describe different security concepts: tracking user activity is known as accounting, authenticating users is the process of verifying their identity, and assigning permissions based on job function is characteristic of role-based access control (RBAC).
