Authorization (AuthZ) and Authentication (AuthN) go hand in hand in ensuring zero-trust in your system landscape. But while scaling identity can be done by centralizing it in an IAM solution, centralizing authorization is seldom a scalable solution. Increased latency, varying requirements and maintainability are all key reasons to want a more decentralized solution that can adapt and scale.
In this talk we will describe how to use Open Policy Agent (OPA) to achieve decentralized authorization in a multi-platform API landscape, including both modern and legacy platforms, while simultanously ensuring centralized compliance controls and enforcement.
