Where the definition came fromawaiting curator confirmation

generalized from a web lookup of the quoted expression at proposal time Verdict: compositional.

A definition generalized from search results is a draft to react to, not provenance. Confirm it against an authority document before this term is verified.

A web lookup ran when this term was proposed

This phrase is compositional rather than a term of art. It combines three independently defined field concepts — *system* (the information system being protected), *access* (the ability to make use of a resource), and *authorization* (the administrative determination of what access rights a principal may hold) — into a descriptive noun phrase whose meaning is fully predictable from its parts. NIST SP 800-53 uses it in exactly this ordinary, non-definitional way (e.g., "define system access authorizations to support separation of duties"), and no major standards body — NIST, ISO, AICPA, or CIS — assigns it a glossary entry or a meaning that diverges from its literal composition.

Advisory only. A term this product ships is defined by an authority document, not by a search result.

Proposed during multiword review of this document in the CKI mapping queue.
