  • Yes, there is a model called ABAC that does just what you're looking for. It lets you define attributes that describe users as well as resources. You then use the attributes inside policies to determine what is allowed and what is not allowed. For instance you could say managers can view items in their departments. A user can edit an item if they are the owner. Commented Nov 1, 2017 at 0:50
