Fine-Grained Policies RBAC with NGAC - José Carlos Chávez, Tetrate The fine-grained nature of cloud native deployments requires fine-grained authorizations at each component. However, this may require security policies to be centrally defined and the configurations reflecting them to be defined in each microservice to enable uniform, consistent enforcement across the entire system which is hard to model and maintain. Next-Generation Access Control (NGAC), developed by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), enables a systematic, policy-consistent approach to access control, granting or denying users administrative capabilities with a high level of granularity. It is based on the assumption that you can model the system you want to protect in a graph that represents the resources and your organizational structure, in a way that has meaning to you and that adheres to your organization semantics. This talk will offer an overview of NGAC and its advantages over more traditional RBAC and ABAC in the context of Zero Trust.
