Cerbos enables easy implementation and management of fine-grained access controls for role-based policy protection. Cerbos policies are defined in YAML configuration files, providing simple and efficient control rules for specific roles based on the developer's policies. Cerbos authorization services can be used to read data from any authentication techniques for RBAC implementations, while offering heightened efficiency to manage roles and permissions based on requirements. Cerbos Hub provides a cloud-hosted solution for large-scale applications, testing and deploying policy bundles to connected policy decision points.
Cerbos assists developers in creating policies and allows for specific access rules based on a role instead of using nested conditional statements, providing better security and a more adaptable solution compared to traditional authorization systems. Cerbos policies can be validated, tested, and compiled efficiently with the use of Cerbos Hub, and policy updates can take effect seamlessly, ensuring a smoother and faster solution against unauthorized operations.
Cerbos offers Playground for developers to test the roles, policies, and access rules before deploying it into a current system. Playground allows users to make users of specific roles, to write policies, test them against the authorized resources for each role, and assigning access to resources for a specific role. Cerbos SDKs can be integrated into any programming stack and languages, including .NET, JavaScript, Python, Java, Ruby, Rust, and more.
