Abstract
A policy auditing service can be implemented, in accordance with at least one embodiment that obtains a set of parameters that indicates a snapshot of a policy configuration for an account, a query, and a security policy. The security policy may encode a security requirement or invariant. The policy auditing system may determine states that can be reached via mutative operations (e.g., role assumption) and use a policy analyzer service to determine whether assuming a role results in a grant of access that is at least as permissive as the security policy of the set of parameters.
