The correct answer is **Role-based** access control (RBAC). In role-based access control, permissions are assigned to specific roles, and users are granted access based on their role. In this case, backup administrators would have a role that gives them access to all servers on the network.
Discretionary access control (DAC) allows owners of resources to determine who has access. Mandatory access control (MAC) is a model where access permissions are determined by a central authority based on multiple levels of security. Authorization is a process rather than a type of access control.
