Cerbos, a London, UK-based adaptive authorization software company, raised $7.5M in Seed funding.
The round, which brought the total amount to $11M, was led by Omers Ventures with participation from angel investors Ryan King, Zeynep Inanoglu Ozdemir, Zach Holman, Zach Lloyd and Lewis Tuff.
The company intends to use the funds to advance its offerings.
Founded by Emre Baran (CEO) and Charith Ellawala (CTO), Cerbos is an adaptive authorization software company that provides Cerbos Cloud, an open source authorization layer for implementing roles and permissions in software applications. It separates the authorization logic from the main application code, making the authorization levels more scalable to change as complexity increases. Cerbos Cloud offers a range of permission management features for developers:
- The managed cloud handles policy management and coordinates with the Cerbos instances running inside the environment, without external dependencies, ensuring that the developer stays in control while maintaining low-latency authorization checks.
- The managed CI pipeline makes policy testing and distribution easy while policies remain in the developer’s GitHub repo which they can control and manage access to.
- The Cerbos Lite bundles, powered by WebAssembly, enable authorization for both on-device and at edge locations using the same set policies as the authorization service deployments.
