In Linux, access to the files is controlled by the operating system using file permissions, attributes, and ownership. Understanding the Linux file system permissions model allows you to restrict access to files and directories only to authorized users and processes and make your system more secure.
Each file is owned by a particular user and a group and assigned with permission access rights for three different classes of users:
There are three file permissions types that apply to each user class and allows you to specify which users are allowed to read the file, write to the file, or execute the file. The same permission attributes apply for both files and directories with a different meaning:
ls
command.cd
command.File permissions can be viewed using the ls
command.
