Cerbos v0.17 is available
This release introduces a new file-based audit logging backend for structured logs that can be ingested by log aggregators. Having the audit trails from all Cerbos instances aggregated in a log management system provides system and security operators fine-grained visibility into all the resources secured by Cerbos. The collected audit data can be used to monitor live trends, create alerts for exceptional or suspicious patterns, and investigate past incidents.
Resource policies and derived role definitions now support the special * operator to be used with roles and parentRoles fields to match any role.
SDKs for Cerbos now include a brand new Ruby SDK and an updated one for NodeJS.
These SDKs make interacting with Cerbos a much more streamlined experience and provide native methods for constructing calls out to check authorization from your codebase. As with everything else with Cerbos, they are open source and can be found on our GitHub account - Node SDK repository, Ruby SDK repository.

We’ve growing very fast and need an experienced developer relations manager as the face of Cerbos in the developer community.
