Patent Images
1. A method for execution by one or more processing modules of one or more computing devices of a dispersed storage network (DSN), the method comprises:
- receiving a data access request for at least one data segment stored in the DSN;
selecting one of a plurality of identity units based on the data access request;
determining, via the selected one of the plurality of identity units, whether to allow the data access request;
processing the data access request, when the data access request is allowed via the selected one of the plurality of identity units.

Abstract
A method for execution by one or more processing modules of a dispersed storage network (DSN) includes receiving a data access request for at least one data segment stored in the DSN. One of a plurality of identity units is selected, based on the data access request. The method determines, via the selected one of the plurality of identity units, whether to allow the data access request. The data access request is processed, when the data access request is allowed via the selected one of the plurality of identity units.
