# Eddie Jaoude: Authorisation for YOUR apps using an API request with Cerbos

Last week Cerbos joined a "Teach Eddie" LIVE stream with [Eddie Jaoude](https://www.eddiehub.org/) and chatted about decoupled access control using Cerbos and did a live demo of integrating it into a Node.js app.

Also in the session we touched upon:

* Build features, not plumbing - decouple and centrally manage the authorization logic across all applications and services to reduce repetition, gain visibility and push access changes instantly across the fleet.
* Fine grained access management - test and deploy fine-grained access control policies with confidence using CI/CD/GitOps workflow.
* Bring your own identity - Cerbos works with any identity provider from popular services like Auth0, Okta, FusionAuth, Magic, WorkOS to your own, bespoke directory system.

You can watch the full talk below ([YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyKRi2YoozY))

We are looking forward to joining Eddie again in the future to dive deeper on authorization and Cerbos.
