## About Aserto
Aserto helps developers build secure applications. It makes it easy to add fine-grained, policy-based, real-time access control to applications and APIs.Aserto handles all the heavy lifting required to achieve secure, scalable, high-performance access management. It offers blazing-fast authorization of a local library coupled with a centralized control plane for managing policies, user attributes, relationship data, and decision logs. And it comes with everything you need to implement any authorization model, including RBAC, ABAC, and ReBAC. Take a look at our open-source projects: - Topaz.sh: a standalone authorizer you can deploy in your environment to add fine-grained access control to your applications. Topaz lets you combine OPA policies with Google Zanzibar’s data model for complete flexibility. - OpenPolicyContainers.com (OPCR) secures OPA policies across the lifecycle by adding the ability to tag, version, sign, and test these policies.

  ### 1. Improves the security of our applications

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**What do you like best about Aserto?**

Regarding the microservices architecture that we use here, Aserto’s fine-grained access control proved useful. It enables us to set very specific authorization rules for each service that we want to use with specific data and options available.

**What do you dislike about Aserto?**

It becomes difficult to handle complex policies with many attributes of policy conditions. The system for creation and modification of policies appears to be not very friendly and managing a lot of rules can be a problem.

**What problems is Aserto solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Aserto has solved a core issue we faced in providing our microservices development team with highly scalable and security-rich access control. They also include fine-grained policies that provide data protection and restrict external viewership.
