Description : Role-based sudo alternative for co-administration
sr is the main tool of the RootAsRole project, providing a modern,
memory-safe alternative to sudo. The projects enforces a Role-based
access control model that allows precise delegation of administrative
tasks.
This package also includes chsr, a configuration utility designed to
simplify the definition and management of roles.
RootAsRole's design targets co-administration environments where several administrators with disctinct responsibilities share control, enabling separation of duties and limiting the privilege abuse. The overall projects scope aims to enable a unified and flexible access control policy framework.
Hello, I'm the developer of RootAsRole, I worked on it all along my studies
and it is now a serious alternative to sudo. But beyond the sr tool, the
main objective of the project is to propose an orchestrator of low-level
access controls mechanisms for high-level access control policies.
As the main objective is to have more sophisticated access control policies,
it imply way more rules in the policy, so now I am quite happy that the
tool currently outperforms sudo by a raw 77% and scales 40% better.
I use my own tool day-to-day on many Linux distributions, and I also
use it for writing some sophisticated Ansible deployements access control policies, it works well and it's unit-tested.
I admit that already started to do the deployement of some dependencies
within the Rust Packaging Team conf tool, as I was a bit curious on the
work that has to be made. I can start the first deployment effort but it
miss several packages dependencies, so it's going to take some time.
I don't know if I will have the time to both develop and maintain the
package deployments over all the wanted distributions, so yes I'm
looking for co-maintainers, it's always appreciated. And to answer the
last question : yes, I need a sponsor.
