+===========================
+Permissions synchronization
+===========================
+
+When administrators create backend users and groups in TYPO3, assigning permissions
+that are stored in the database, they can easily edit these settings via the backend module.
+However, managing these settings across different environments — testing, staging,
+and production — can be challenging.
+
+Ensuring ACL configurations are consistent and synchronized can be time-consuming,
+often leading to issues. For example, developers might forget to update permissions
+across environments during deployments, causing inconsistencies. There are strategies
+to mitigate these synchronization challenges.
+
+.. _permissions-import-export:
+
+Managing database configurations: importing and exporting
+=========================================================
+
+A solution for synchronizing permissions across environments in TYPO3 is using
+the import/export feature (more details: :ref:`TYPO3 Import / Export <ext_impexp:_usage>`). This feature
+allows exporting and importing records, including relational data, across different
+instances.
+
+However, you might prefer not to export/import backend user accounts directly.
+After importing groups and permissions, reassign these groups to existing users
+as needed. Keep in mind though, that managing environment-specific groups while
+updating others can be a complex task.
+
+.. _deployable-permissions:
+
+Deployable permissions
+======================
+
+A highly desired feature not yet in TYPO3 core is `Deployable permissions` for ACLs,
+allowing permission sets to be stored in files for version control and easy deployment
+across environments. This ensures consistent permission application and simple
+updates or rollbacks via version control systems (VCS).
+
+In the meantime, the community extension `Permission Sets <https://github.com/b13/permission-sets>`__
+offers a workaround, linking permission sets to TYPO3 backend user groups
+via yaml files, filling this functionality gap. However, it's currently in the
+testing phase, as noted by its author.
