Cerbos

Open-source authorization layer for fine-grained access control via externalized policies.

PlatformWebfreemiumglobal

An open-source authorization layer that externalizes fine-grained access control into versioned policy files and serves decisions via a stateless, language-agnostic API. It helps remove scattered authorization logic from application code so permissions can be audited and changed centrally, and is intended for developers, platform teams, and security engineers who need detailed, self-hosted access control rather than simple login-only solutions.
