We will use Linux commands to configure authorization.

Authorization is the concept of granting access to specific resources in a system.

It's important because without authorization any user could access and modify all files belonging to other users or system files. This would certainly be a security risk.

In Linux, file and directory permissions are used to specify who has access to specific files and directories.

I explored file and directory permissions and change the ownership of a file and a directory to limit who can access them.

As a security analyst, setting appropriate access permissions is critical to protecting sensitive information and maintaining the overall security of a system.
