Cerbos ecosystem

One of the many advantages of Cerbos is not having to either learn new languages or build separate authentication integrations.
Our SDKs work with:

• NodeJS
• GO
• Java
  And we integrate with authentication vendors:
• JWT
• Auth0
• Okta
• FusionAuth
• Magic
• Prisma
• WorkOS
  Please visit Cerbos Ecosystem page to find out more, or try these integrations out in our fully functional playground.

Cerbos versions 0.13 and 0.14 are out!

Cerbos introduces a new concept: scoped policies that will help developers modelling hierarchical relationships. Users now can define hierarchical policies than can be overridden for certain groups when needed, for example one can create a specific policy for a department that overwrites the overall company
Being confident that your policies correctly implement your business requirements is key in order to begin evolving rules over time. Cerbos already allows a test suite to be defined but this release adds a new capability - Matrix Tests which will run the tests for all principals and all resources. Find out more here.
In this releases we also introduced the run command, which can be used as a quick way to try out Cerbos or as a test runner, as well as adding support for time-based conditions.

Blog highlights

In this blog post you will learn How To Incrementally Adopt New Authorization Systems by exploring how to make piecemeal, incremental and manageable changes to your application in terms of migrating access controls to Cerbos, rather than a potentially more risky rip-and-replace approach.

Industry news

The Next Generation of Developer-First Products - Zeno Rocha

There has been a shift in recent years to focusing on the developer experience to build compelling products. With the likes of Vercel, Prisma and PlanetScale taking a laser focus on documentation, code examples and tooling it has never been easier to get stuck in getting a new tool up and running in your app.
Zeno Rocha of WorkOS has published a recent talk highlighting just what is critical for a slick developer-first product which is well worth a read if you are working on a solution targeting tech teams.
