Answer :
A right grants the authority to perform an action on a system. A permission grants access to a resource.
In the context of system security and access control:
- A right is a privilege granted to a user or process that allows them to perform a specific action on a system. For example, a right might allow a user to shut down the computer or to modify system settings.
- A permission is a rule that grants access to a specific resource, such as a file, directory, or network resource. Permissions determine what actions (such as read, write, or execute) can be performed on that resource.
Thus, a right defines the actions a user can perform, while a permission defines what resources a user can access and what they can do with those resources.
