+=======
+
+Patrole is a tool for verifying that Role-Based Access Control is being enforced.
+
+Patrole allows users to run API tests using specified RBAC roles. This allows
+deployments to verify that only intended roles have access to those APIs.
+This is critical to ensure security, especially in large deployments with
+custom roles.
