- An entity such as a file, folder, shared folder, printer, or Active Directory object, described by a distinct, named set of attributes. For example, the attributes of a File object include its name, location, and size: the attributes of an Active Directory User object might include the user's first name, last name, and e-mail address.

- A distinct, named set of attributes that represents something concrete, such as a user, a printer, or an application. The attributes hold data describing the thing that is identified by the directory object. Attributes of a user might include the user's given name, surname, and e-mail address. See also: attribute

Any resource that can be manipulated by a program or process. Objects include resources that you can see through the user interface, such as files, folders, printers, registry subkeys and entries, Active Directory objects (that reside in an OU and has attributes stored... such as Users, Computers, and Groups), and the MS Windows desktop. They also include resources that you cannot see, such as sessions, processes, threads, and access tokens. An object can functions as a logical container for other objects.

- An instance of a particular class. In general, any number of objects may be constructed from a class definition (see singleton, however). The class to which an object belongs defines the general characteristics of all instances of that class. Within those characteristics, an object will behave according to the current state of its attributes and environment.

- An "instance" of a "class". Something that "knows" what user-defined type (class) it is, and what it can do because of what class it is. Your program can request an object to do things, but the object gets to decide whether it wants to do them or not. Some objects are more accommodating than others.

- 1. In image processing, a sub-region of an image that is perceived as a single entity. Note: An image can contain more than one object. 2. In facsimile systems, the image, the likeness of which is to be transmitted. 3. [A] Passive entity containing or receiving information. Access to an object implies access to the information it contains. [INFOSEC-99] 4. A passive entity within a system that contains or receives information [CESG]. Examples: records, blocks, pages, segments, files, etc. Note: [1] Access to an object implies potential access to the information it contains. [2] An entity (e.g. a program) may be both a subject and an object. Which it is depends on consideration of the type of access in which it participates. [3] The range of valid objects is restricted by the available types of operations that can be performed, e.g. read, write, execute, etc. See also: Subject. 5. Abbreviation of security object [ECMATR46]. 6. A passive entity that contains or receives information [ITSEC]. 7. A passive entity that contains or receives information. Access to an object potentially implies access to the information that it contains. Examples of items that may be considered objects are: records, blocks, pages, segments, files, directories, directory trees, and programs, as well as bits, bytes, words, fields, processors, video displays, keyboards, clocks, printers, network nodes, etc[POSIX.6]. 8.
