The following is a SharePoint Dictionary word of the day:
Access control entry (ACE)
An entry in either a securable item’s discretionary access
control list (DACL) or an item’s system access control list (SACL). In a DACL,
the entry grants or denies permissions to a user or group. In a SACL, the entry
identifies which security events to audit for a certain user or group or
controls the Windows Integrity Level for the item.
