Cerbos is an open-source solution designed to simplify and modernize access control for cloud-native, microservice-based applications. Instead of hardcoding authorization logic into your application, Cerbos lets you write flexible, context-aware access policies using a YAML syntax. These policies are managed separately from your app and evaluated via simple API requests to Cerbos’ Policy Decision Point (PDP).
