          Updates to Cerbos

          v0.27 & v0.28 of Cerbos

           

          The latest releases of Cerbos include support for user-defined outputs from policies, storage overlay support for fallback scenarios, as well as Kafka and tests suites updates.

          • Cerbos now supports returning user-defined output values from policy evaluation enabling context to be returned from a policy decision for use in your application logic, for example to explain why permission was denied. A commonly requested use case is to enforce that 2FA has been completed in order for certain actions to be performed, and if not return a message to redirect the user to reauthenticate
          • Introduced policy output testing, ensuring policies produce accurate decisions as well as producing expected output values.

          • Launched new overlay storage, a driver enabling configuration of base and fallback storage providers to ensure continuing service even if the primary storage engine becomes unavailable.

          • Extended the Kafka audit-sink with compression support.

          You can find the full release notes here: v0.27, v0.28.
