A sudo IO-plugin written in Rust that requires a second live human to approve and monitor privileged sudo sessions. It enforces dual-control for root access, supporting compliance requirements like SOX.
Use cases
- require dual approval for sudo commands
- enforce two-person rule for privileged access
- meet SOX compliance for root access
- have a peer monitor live sudo sessions
- add dual-control to linux servers
When to choose
- you need dual-control sudo for compliance audits
- you want a second human to approve and watch privileged sessions
- you run shared linux infrastructure with strict access policies
When to avoid
- you work solo with no second approver available
- you need full privileged access management (PAM/PAM-style session recording suites)
- you need a cross-platform solution beyond linux
