== Overview
{{book.project.name}} supports fine-grained authorization policies with a mix and match of different access control
mechanisms such as:
* **Attribute-based Access Control**
* **Role-based Access Control**
* **User-based Access Control**
* **Context-based Access Control**
* **Rule-based Access Control**
** Using Javascript
** Using JBoss Drools
* **Support for custom ACMs through a Policy Provider SPI**
Being based on a set of administrative UIs and a RESTful API, {{book.project.name}} provides the necessary means to create permissions
for your protected resources and scopes, associate these permissions with authorization policies and enforce authorization
decisions in your application and services.
Considering that today we need to consider a very heterogeneous environment, where users are distributed across different regions, with different local policies,
using different devices and with a high demand for information sharing, Keycloak Authorization Services can be used as great tool to:
* Control your protected resources and the actions that can be performed on them with fine-grained authorization policies
* Centralized Resource, Permission and Policy Management
* Authorization Workflows and User-Managed Access
* Avoid code replication across projects (and redeploys) and quickly adapt to changes in your requirements
* Auditing
