Access to a module is controlled by

Access to a module is controlled by

• A. Roles
• B. Permissions
• C. Groups
• D. Users

Answer: (A)

Roles determine access to a module because they define the bundle of permissions a user has and, crucially, which modules should appear for that user. When a user logs in, the system checks their roles; if they include the role linked to a module, that module becomes visible and accessible. Permissions describe the specific actions allowed within those modules, but who can even see or reach the module is governed by the role assignment. Groups help organize users, and users are individuals, but access to a module hinges on having the appropriate role (often granted directly or via a group that grants that role).
