Claim 7:
8. A computer-implemented method for access control for executing commands on air-gapped computer systems, the computer-implemented method comprising:
determining whether a role-based access control system permits a user to execute a command on an air-gapped computer system, in response to receiving a request from the user to execute the command;
prompting a number of approvers to determine whether to approve of the user executing the command, in response to a determination that the role-based access control system permits the user to execute the command;
encoding the command and incorporating the encoded command in an encoded message, in response to a determination that a required number of approvers have approved of the user executing the command;
communicating, by a simplex communication output device, the encoded message to a simplex communication input device for the air-gapped computer system; and
enabling execution of the command by one of requesting the air-gapped computer system to execute the command, and providing the user with an access token, received from the air-gapped computer system, which enables the user to physically access the air-gapped computer system and execute the command.
