Systems and methods for role-based access control for a storage system are described. An illustrative method includes an access control system identifying, based on a role of a user requesting access to the storage system, a permission of the role to access a resource type; determining, based on the resource type and on a mapping of resources of different secured endpoints of the storage system to resource types, a set of resources of the storage system that the role has permission to access; identifying a subset of the set of resources of the storage system that the user is authorized to access; and granting the user role-based access to the subset of the set of resources of the storage system.
