ACL (Access Control List) Manager

ACL Manager is a system component used to define and manage who can access specific functionality block within a platform. In a school or workspace context, an ACL Manager is typically used to ensure that, for example:
- students can view lessons, but cannot edit them;
- Teachers can manage sections and grades;
- Admins can configure settings and manage users.

Thus, the ACL Manager enforces security and role-based access by checking permissions before allowing any action in the system.
