Context Based Access Control (cbac)
Easy to use, light-weight authorization system for Rails applications.
Context Based Access Control allows you to build a Rails application with both generic roles as well as context roles. The generic role part allows an application to authorize users with a conventional role system. The context part allows an application to authorize with a combination of the user credentials and the context of the requested action.
