Answer:

Access Control List

Step-by-step explanation:

An access control list is a table that tells a computer operating system(windows, Mac-os, Linux) which access rights a user or group of users have to certain object on the computer system. The object to be accessed may range from an individual file to a directory.

The most commonly allowed accesses includes the ability to read files, execute files (i.e if the files is executable; .exe), write to the file.
