Flexible & risk-based PBAC enterprise-wide
As enterprises modernize, the complexity of access controls grows. PlainID’s Dynamic Authorization Service simplifies how enterprises securely connect identities to digital assets. Powered by a Policy-Based Access Control (PBAC) framework, PlainID ensures seamless integration with existing systems for risk signals and distributes enforcement across the technology stack. This facilitates rapid adoption and proliferation of risk-based Authorization enforcement for custom applications, APIs, microservices, down to the data layer.
