What is Hexa?

Hexa is an open-source project encompassing several tools for policy orchestration and identity management across different platforms. Here's a breakdown of its key offerings:

Key Offerings:

  • Policy Orchestrator: Enables centralized management and provisioning of access policies across diverse platforms and systems. It leverages a common policy format (IDQL) for consistent policy definition and translation to platform-specific formats.

  • Policy Mapper: Provides libraries and tools for mapping IDQL policies to diverse policy formats required by specific platforms, bridging the gap between centralized policy management and platform-specific implementations.

  • IDQL Policy Language: Defines a common, human-readable format for expressing access policies, simplifying policy creation and modification across different systems.

  • Governance Dashboard: Offers a visual dashboard for managing and auditing policies across your infrastructure, promoting centralized visibility and control.

Benefits:

  • Consolidated Policy Management: Streamline policy definition and enforcement across disparate systems, reducing complexity and effort.

  • Reduced Policy Silos: Eliminate inconsistencies and security risks through centralized policy management.

  • Simplified Platform Integrations: Bridge the gap between IDQL policies and platform-specific formats with pre-built mappers or custom plugins.

  • Improved Visibility and Control: Gain a consolidated view of your access policies and audit activity through the Governance Dashboard.
