Cedar Joins CNCF as a Sandbox Project

Cedar, an open-source policy language architected by AWS, has joined the CNCF as a Sandbox project. Designed for fine-grained application permissions, it decouples access control from code using a verifiable, high-performance policy engine. Cedar supports RBAC, ABAC, and ReBAC, offering a secure, analyzable alternative to general-purpose tools like OPA.
