Sym

Gaylord Buckridge

I’ve seen so many dev teams try to build this on their own and it always takes way longer than they think. Congrats on the launch!

Sym makes it easy to build in approval workflows into existing systems. If you are a 'slack-native' organization, especially, take a look! The python SDK makes is possible to support all sorts of complicated workflows if you need to, but simple things are easy too. The team is super responsive to feedback, and is great to work with!

Thanks for sharing! This looks great. Can I use something like Sym and PagerDuty together?

Hello ProductHunt community! I’m Justin and I’m excited to introduce Sym. If you’re a developer who has struggled with how to handle access to your infrastructure…read on. If I say “your infrastructure needs to be secure” nobody would disagree. But how that actually works is a lot less simple. There’s a good chance you’ve got multiple developers with free reign in AWS IAM. Access tends to be all or nothing, instead of just-in-time and just-this-resource. To really make your infra secure and ensure the right people get access to the right things takes a meaningful degree of upfront effort. But it also slows things down continually if your teammates constantly need to be requesting access to the resources they need to build new things. Getting features out quickly is hard enough; the last thing you want to worry about is leaving your developer hanging on a ticket to get access to the S3 bucket they need to implement something new. This was the norm at several companies I’ve worked at: I remember a cool 6 day waiting period to get read-only access to our production database replica at a certain large cloud provider who shall remain unnamed. All of this is why we built Sym! Sym helps developers secure their infrastructure without slowing down. You get everything you need to implement just-in-time access for your team: a Terraform provider for defining roles that match your IAM, a workflow engine for lines out to Pagerduty, Okta, and the like, plus a dead-simple Slack UI where your team can make and approve/reject requests. Sym is built for setup in a few hours instead of a few days, so you can get enterprise-grade infrastructure security without the big up front cost.

This problem was born out of challenges we had at Localytics. Had this been available this would have been a very easy check to write!

The sym product has been extremely helpful with solving our access needs. After implementing one flow, we quickly started finding other use cases and different ideas to simplify our security model. Not only has the product been great, the team has been fantastic to work with!

Congrats on the launch Sym! I love the idea of bringing access requests into tools where teams live (slack etc) and temporary access needs (I always forget about them... 🙃)

Sym (the product and the team) have been great partners! We've been using their product to gate and log all of our production access - including supporting customers within our own app and are super happy! They're super fast when we have questions and are always interested and engaging on how we can better leverage their product and get a better experience on our end. And it was super easy to get in to production.
