Abbey Labs is an access governance platform for DevOps engineers that extends Infrastructure as Code (IaC) setups — specifically Terraform — with automated access request, approval, and revocation workflows. Engineers define access workflows and policies using a Terraform-native resource called a "Grant Kit," which specifies reviewers, compliance policies, and output configurations for granting access to infrastructure resources. Core capabilities include: - Automated access request and approval routing without ticket systems - Policy-based guardrails for compliance (e.g., SOC 2, auto-revoke rules) - A web-based resource catalog for employees to discover and request access - Access revocation automation based on defined time limits or policy triggers - Audit logging of all access changes, available within the Abbey app or a Git-based version control system Abbey operates as an overlay on top of existing Terraform state, CI/CD pipelines, and secrets management — it does not manage or access those systems directly. Access changes are written back as Terraform configuration files into the user's own version-controlled infrastructure repository. The platform targets security and compliance use cases such as least-privilege enforcement, identity and access auditing, and reducing manual toil associated with managing infrastructure permissions.
