With the rise of AI agents, many organizations want to expose information that differentiates their business. Doing so has several potential business benefits: attracting new parties at internet scale, monetizing those connections, and enabling new and dynamic user experiences. APIs expose data to the outside world and support many types of clients, like web or ...| Nordic APIs

Istio supports integration with many different projects. The Istio blog recently featured a post on L7 policy functionality with OpenPolicyAgent. Kyverno is a similar project, and today we will dive how Istio and the Kyverno Authz Server can be used together to enforce Layer 7 policies in your platform. We will show you how to get started with a simple example. You will come to see how this combination is a solid option to deliver policy quickly and transparently to application team everywher...| Istio Blog
Shared computing platforms offer resources and shared functionality to tenant teams so that they don’t need to build everything from scratch themselves. While it can sometimes be hard to balance all the requests from tenants, it’s important that platform teams ask the question: what’s the highest value feature we can offer our tenants? Often work is given directly to application teams to implement, but there are some features that are best implemented once, and offered as a service to a...| Istio Blog
Background Istio’s authorization policy provides access control for services in the mesh. It is fast, powerful and a widely used feature. We have made continuous improvements to make policy more flexible since its first release in Istio 1.4, including the DENY action, exclusion semantics, X-Forwarded-For header support, nested JWT claim support and more. These features improve the flexibility of the authorization policy, but there are still many use cases that cannot be supported with this ...| Istio Blog

Datalog is a logic programming language, based on Prolog, which is seeing something of a resurgence in interest in recent years.

FYI I love acronyms: acronym soup, acronyms al dente, acronym au jus… Acronyms FTW. So, when I started working on a new article for the IDPro newsletter, it only felt natural to tackle OWASP and IAM. O’ What, you ask? Let’s dive right in. What’s IAM? Most of the readership here is familiar with IAM: Identity & Access Management. I’ll refer back to IDPro’s book of knowledge for definitions. Turn to the terminology section for the following: In short, Identity & Access Management (I...| Harvesting web technologies

Top 5 reasons ABAC has been slow to adapt But ABAC is still worth it… Everyone’s talking about it. Should you do it? I’m biased so I’ll say yes. But don’t take my word for it. Look at NIST’s Guide to Attribute Based Access Control (ABAC) Definition and Considerations, Gartner’s research, as well as Kuppinger Cole and Group 451.

Originally published on IDPro. For the first time ever, Identiverse headed to Vegas for its annual conference.

We’re making authorization great again! Much Ado about Authorization I was delighted to see so much activity around authorization, both in the standards track, the vendor track, and the keynotes.

Attribute-based access control is a logical access control methodology where authorization to perform a set of operations is determined by evaluating attributes associated with the subject, object, requested operations, and, in some cases, environment conditions against policy, rules, or relationships that describe the allowable operations for a given set of attributes.

In versions of Istio prior to 1.4, security policy was configured using v1alpha1 APIs (MeshPolicy, Policy, ClusterRbacConfig, ServiceRole and ServiceRoleBinding). After consulting with our early adopters, we made major improvements to the policy system and released v1beta1 APIs along with Istio 1.4. These refreshed APIs (PeerAuthentication, RequestAuthentication and AuthorizationPolicy) helped standardize how we define policy targets in Istio, helped users understand where policies were appli...| Istio Blog
