Does a policy without a filter apply universally in attribute-based provisioning?

A policy without a filter in attribute-based provisioning indeed applies universally to all users within the relevant scope of the provisioning process. In attribute-based provisioning, policies are often set to determine access and resource provisioning based on user attributes. When a policy does not include a filter, it means that there are no specific conditions or limits set; therefore, it automatically encompasses all users without exception.

This universality ensures that all users who fit within the broader context of the defined system and policies will be affected by the policy. It allows for consistency in the application of rules across the board, thereby simplifying management and compliance with regulatory requirements.

In contrast, a policy with filters or specific cases would direct the provisioning actions to a subset of users, depending on their attributes or roles, which is not the case when a policy is universally applied.
