Throughout this guide, we describe entities and links. Entity refers to the users, roles, and resources that are the subject of the security review, certification, and attestation processes that are run using the CA RCM Portal. A link is a connection between two or more entities.
The CA RCM Portal recognizes the following three categories of links:
An uninterrupted connection between two entities. For example, a user to resource link.
A non-direct connection between two or more entities. For example, a user links to a specific role and the role links to a specific resource. The link between the user and the resource is an indirect link.
Specifies when both a direct link and an indirect link exist. For example, a user links directly to a specific resource, and at the same time the user links to a role that links to the same resource.

The following is a list of possible direct links between entities:
