Blog highlights

How Loop achieved reliable and scalable authorization with Cerbos

Loop, a B2B FinTech startup streamlining financial operations for businesses, sought to establish centralized access controls through a reliable and proven solution, which would allow Loop to boost their SDLC and meet the compliance requirements of their regulators.

We had the pleasure of sitting down with Mohsin Kalam to learn more about why he chose Cerbos as Loop’s authorization solution, and discuss some of the incredible results of the collaboration.

How to use Cerbos effectively

Cerbos is a product developed by developers who have had to deal with painful problems of authorization themselves. We are committed to making Cerbos a delightful piece of software to use.

In this blog post written by Cerbos co-founder & CTO, Charith Ellawala, we showcase all the (free!) developer productivity tools and features that we have built to achieve that goal.
