The Privilege Attribute Certificate (PAC) Data Structure is used by authentication protocols that verify identities to transport authorization information, which controls access to resources. The Kerberos protocol [RFC4120] does not provide authorization. The Privilege Attribute Certificate (PAC) was created to provide this authorization data for Kerberos Protocol Extensions [MS-KILE]. Into the PAC structure [MS-KILE] encodes authorization information, which consists of group memberships, additional credential information, profile and policy information, and supporting security metadata.<1>
