In the realities of modern database management, robust security measures, in particular resource access differentiation, play a key role in protecting and preserving information. Authentication and authorization are fundamental concepts in identity and access management systems (IAM systems). This paper presents a description of the process and results of modernizing Proxima DBMS by implementing a Keycloak-based IAM module. The work includes a survey of existing relevant security and access differentiation solutions and approaches; a description of the architecture and implementation of the identity and access control management component in the context of Proxima DBMS; and an overview of the technologies used in testing to ensure correct functionality. In addition, potential directions for continued work are demonstrated.
