1. A method comprising: receiving an access attempt to a security enabled application executing on at least one processor; identifying, by the security enabled application, user credentials associated with the access attempt; generating, by the security enabled application, a query based on the user credentials to identify whether the user credentials are associated with at least one predetermined group membership; receiving, by the security enabled application, a response to the query comprising group information corresponding to the user; and comparing, by the security enabled application, the group information to a set of predetermined rules to determine whether the group information comprises privilege rules used to grant access to the access attempt; wherein the set of predetermined rules are stored in an extensible mark-up language (XML) data file that specifies one or more privilege rules for a plurality of groups, wherein rules exist for operations but not for roles and wherein roles are determined purely by group membership; wherein a decision to grant access to the access attempt is dependent on a role of the user and on the group information such that a first user having the first role and first group information is granted access under different conditions to a second user having the first role and second group information different to the first group information; wherein at least one rule makes changes to at least one current role of the user to provide limited access on-the-fly to provide the user with access for the access attempt; wherein at least one rule in the XML data file that grants access to the access attempt is identified; wherein the access attempt and at least one task associated with the access attempt is allowed; wherein when a user account associated with the access attempt is part of at least one group of user accounts, the user account is granted access to administrative privileges which are granted to at least one other user in the at least one group.
