Abstract

There are provided systems and methods for an authorization and access control system for access rights using relationship graphs. A service provider may provide an authorization and access control system that allows users within the service provider and/or customer entities to assign and change access rights or permissions to computing resources. When providing control of these access rights, the service provider may utilize relationship graphs, queried and generated using a graph database, to visualize and determine access rights that are inherited through different relationships and policies defining these access rights. The relationship graph may show edges for nodes that correspond to related objects, such as actors, groups, and resources. Paths over the relationship graph may be used to determine access rights that may be inherited by users. Once determined, these access rights may be established and/or updated with computing systems.
