Abstract: A data-retrieval system maintains a database of records with which it associates respective security keys. It uses those security keys as a basis for deciding whether to grant access to the records. It additionally maintains organizational information that lists relationships among positions within an organization. When a requestor requests access to a record in the database, the system associates zero or more positions with the requestor, typically by determining which position or positions within the organization the requestor occupies. It additionally determines which, if any, other positions within the organization bear a predetermined relationship to any such occupied position, and it assembles a key list that includes keys that it has associated with all such positions. The way in which the system determines whether to grant the requestor access to the record is to determine whether the security key associated with that record matches any key in the key list.

Abstract translation: 数据检索系统维护与之相关联的各个安全密钥的记录数据库。 它使用这些安全密钥作为决定是否授予访问记录的依据。 它还维护组织信息，列出组织中职位之间的关系。 当请求者请求访问数据库中的记录时，系统通常通过确定请求者占据的组织中的哪个位置或位置将零个或多个位置与请求者相关联。 它另外确定组织内的其他位置（如果有的话）与任何这样的占用位置具有预定的关系，并且组合包括与所有这样的位置相关联的键的键列表。 系统确定是否授予请求者访问记录的方式是确定与该记录相关联的安全密钥是否与密钥列表中的任何密钥相匹配。
