“In fintech, you’ve got to track and enforce who can access data and when. If you don’t do this correctly, you potentially open up unauthorized access.”

Edgar Rivera, CTO

Authorization can’t be an afterthought

Close security blind spots

Every transfer, approval, and data request depends on authorization logic. With Cerbos, authorization is policy-driven and auditable.

Stop uncontrolled money movement

Over-permissive roles or missing real-time checks allow unauthorized transfers. With Cerbos, every payment and approval is evaluated against policy at runtime.

Limit data access

AI agents, APIs, and backend services inherit broader access than required. PBAC enforces least privilege for customer and transaction data.

Accelerate compliance response

Cerbos enforces AML and KYC requirements through versioned access policies, enabling faster updates and clearer audit trails.

Months of dev time saved

“It's weird to say an outside company has our back, but Cerbos does. It's the people. It's their open-source code: it's high quality, you can read it, it does what it says on the tin.”
