page_title: ACL System
description: >-
Consul provides an optional Access Control List (ACL) system which can be used
to control access to data and APIs. The ACL system is a Capability-based
system that relies on tokens which can have fine grained rules applied to
them. It is very similar to AWS IAM in many ways.
