Cerbos goes beyond traditional access control systems by offering enhanced features like context-aware role definitions and attribute-based access control (ABAC) via decoupling the logic from your application code and into an externalized authorization policy decision point. Which allows it to seamlessly scale from prototype to global deployment while saving months of developer time. Its low-code, human-readable configuration enables users to easily implement and update complex authorization policies without altering the core application code. This not only improves visibility but also fosters collaboration and enhances overall security. Cerbos is also stateless, which allows for reliable, up-to-date decision-making without the need for application state synchronization. Additionally, Cerbos PDPs offer low-latency authorization checks by running directly in your environment. Cerbos further distinguishes itself with its focus on compliance and accountability. It supports real-time access control logs to help you achieve compliance with standards like ISO27001 and SOC2. Cerbos audit logs likewise ensure robust threat protection and comprehensive accountability. The solution also offers testable authorization with a GitOps approach, allowing you to implement a reliable CI/CD workflow, and streamlines policy updates with centralized management, pushing real-time policy changes proactively to all Policy Decision Points for seamless rollouts. Cerbos offers pre-built SDKs and starter projects for quick implementation for the most common languages and frameworks, along with template policies that can be customized to fit your specific business needs. Gain insights into deployed PDP instances, tracking active policies, their versions, and more, ensuring all PDPs are synchronized and up-to-date. As well as a Playground, which serves as a fully-featured collaborative IDE for developing, iterating, and testing policies, providing instant feedback on changes and integrating into your Git-based workflow for easy evolution of authorization policies.
