How do tag-based access controls work in Dynatrace?

Tag-based access controls in Dynatrace leverage Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies that are defined based on tags associated with resources. This mechanism allows organizations to establish fine-grained access controls that align with their operational and security requirements. By using tags, administrators can categorize resources and assign permissions dynamically, ensuring that only authorized users have access to specific resources based on the tags assigned to those resources. This method not only streamlines the management of access policies but also enhances security by allowing for a more tailored and context-aware control system.

The other options do not accurately reflect how tag-based access controls function within Dynatrace. For instance, unrestricted access contradicts the principle of access control, which is designed to restrict rather than permit all users. While access might relate to user groups, tag-based controls are not limited to them, as they can apply across various resources regardless of user groups. Data encryption is a separate security principle that protects data at rest and in transit and does not pertain to access control policies.
