Styra enables enterprises to build and manage modern authorization across the entire cloud native stack, from applications to infrastructure using policy as code. Leveraging solutions with both open source, Open Policy Agent (OPA), and commercial software, the Enterprise OPA Platform, Styra empowers identity and access management (IAM) engineering teams, developers, and DevOps teams to mitigate risks, reduce human error, and accelerate application development. The Enterprise OPA Platform includes Enterprise OPA (a performance optimized, drop-in replacement for OPA), and Styra Declarative Authorization Service (DAS) (a centralized management solution providing a control plane, policy lifecycle management, and policy governance), along with services, support, and developer tooling for enterprise-grade authorization.

We've released OPA v1.0.1, a patch release with the following fixes: - Bumped Go to 1.23.5 to address vulnerabilities in the Go runtime - Address issue in the bundle activation flow where the Rego version for individual modules was lost during bundle deactivation Check out the release notes for more details.
Not on OPA 1.0 yet? Now's the time to upgrade. OPA 1.0 and Regal 0.30 bring more than just the new Rego syntax—they deliver serious performance improvements: • Evaluation is around 30% faster, sometimes even more • Memory usage is significantly reduced • Regal itself benefits too, leveraging these improvements for faster linting of your Rego (how cool is that!?) These enhancements make larger Rego projects faster and smoother to work with. If you've been holding off, now's the perfect time to make the move. And it doesn't stop here—more improvements are on the way in the next OPA release. Stay tuned! 📻 #OpenPolicyAgent #Rego #OPA #Regal

My colleague Christopher Hendrix made the Regal viking in the form of a "crocheted amigurumi". And I quote him on that as I have no idea what it means. But it's adorable, and I absolutely love it! 😍

Of all the features we’ve worked on in Regal, this remains my absolute favorite, and asking Charlie Egan to work on it one of the best things I’ve done as a manager. Merry Christmas / happy holidays to you all! 🎅🏻🎁🎄

Nine years after Tim Hinrichs made the first commit in the Open Policy Agent repo — and 167 releases later — OPA 1.0 is here! With contributions from more than 450 developers across the globe, and production deployments in many of the largest organizations in the world, OPA has become a de-facto standard for unifying policy enforcement over diverse, complex and heterogenous tech stacks.

In this episode of the Amazic podcast, Senior Developer Advocate Charlie Egan sits down with host Twain Taylor to talk about all things Policy as Code and how about Regal makes life easier for policy authors. Check it out!
There are many important aspects to policy evaluation. You need high performance, you need auditing, you need expressive APIs. Gusto needed low latency decisions for batches of queries, while preserving per-decision audit logs. We helped them deliver just that with Enterprise OPA's Batch APIs. Read all about it in this great post from Nicholaos Mouzourakis, Staff Product Security Engineer at Gusto.
Using highlight.js is a great way to embed nice looking code snippets in blogs and web pages. But up until now, syntax highlighting for Rego hasn't been supported. Now it is! Check out our latest mini-project to start showing off your Rego like it deserves to be seen.
