How to Get Authorization Right

In the past few months, we have talked to over 100 engineers from both Fortune 500 companies and startups about their approach to authorization. The complaints were playing in tune.Everyone hated syncing and moving authorization data. Most engineers agreed that modeling is hard, especially when it comes to never ending product requirements. Also, no one liked the fact that authorization logic is cluttering the code base, and creating technical debt. And last but not least, Many developers told us testing & auditing haunt them at nights. Even thought everyone run into similar problems, there was no consensus over a solution. Each team keep reinventing the wheel. Some teams spend months to clean out their technical debt, and build a full fledged authorization service. Yes, building unified authorization is hard. Here’s why, and how to properly solve it.

Laravel SDK - Where Laravel Authorizations Left-Off

The authorizations are decision mechanisms enforced in the most actions a user takes in an application. There is an enforced authorization decision for most of the components in your application. In other words, this means spreading authorization logic all over the code, and creating a spaghetti code.

Why you need to outsource Authorization

Authorizations are usually a part that is overlooked. It's not seen as the core part of the product, and they usually build on hacked solutions with bare minimum requirements. However your product will quickly change, and further development needs to be done on your bare minimum authorization system because of different user needs and access management requirements. This will start to disturb your product development process. As your product scales, you’ll face the problem of not adding a feature to your product without considering the authorization mechanism. Then you’ll spend serious time of the development effort will go to refactoring, testing, and changing the access control mechanism which will take away your attention from your core product.
