-----------------------------------------
Affects Version/s: (was: 1.5.5)
> Feature Request: User Level-Based Visibility and Access Control in Apache
> Guacamole
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GUACAMOLE-1963
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-1963
> Project: Guacamole
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: guacamole
> Reporter: Tribhuwan Phulera
> Priority: Minor
>
> *Feature Description:*
> Introduce a user level-based access control feature in Apache Guacamole to
> manage visibility and access to active machine sessions based on hierarchical
> user levels within the organization.
> *Background:*
> Apache Guacamole currently provides robust remote access capabilities for
> managing IT resources across organizations. However, in complex
> organizational structures, it is crucial to restrict access to active machine
> sessions based on user roles or levels to ensure security and efficiency. For
> example, a manager or supervisor may need access to monitor and assist their
> team members' active sessions without unnecessary access to sessions of users
> outside their authority.
> *Requested Feature:*
> # *User Level Classification:* Implement a system within Apache Guacamole to
> categorize users into hierarchical levels or roles based on organizational
> structure or authority.
> # *Session Visibility and Access Control:*
> ** *Visibility:* Users should only be able to view active machine sessions
> of users at the same or lower level within the organizational hierarchy.
> ** *Access:* Users should have the ability to connect to and manage (view or
> interact with) sessions of users at the same or lower level for support and
> oversight purposes.
> # *Administrative Controls:* Provide administrative controls to configure
> and manage user levels, ensuring flexibility and adaptability to varying
> organizational structures.
> # *Audit and Logging:* Ensure comprehensive audit and logging capabilities
> to track user interactions with session visibility and access, maintaining
> accountability and security.
> *Benefit:* This feature enhancement will facilitate efficient management of
> IT resources by aligning access permissions with organizational roles or
> levels, thereby enhancing security, productivity, and support capabilities
> within Apache Guacamole.
