I was super curious to hear how Zanzibar is being used to control access to buildings. Don’t be fooled, this is not that post. ;)

I was super curious to hear why the Zanzibar office of Google was somehow better at authorization than e.g. their Mountain View office.

At least one Google office I know has building access controlled by Zanzibar.

I was surprised that Google even had offices in Zanzibar.

It's such a weird name. It's like naming a product Google California.

Apologies for the confusion! Maybe an interesting idea for us to explore next :P

I wouldn't be surprised if it is somewhere. Just have the smart card system use Cloud IAM for access control decisions.

That sounds like a nightmare. A cloud outage means no one can badge in anywhere, including at DCs?

Isn't that exactly what happened to Facebook a little while ago?
