Abstract
An access policy analysis system is disclosed, configured to analyze access policies defined in a computer network to generate effective access data (EAD) for individual pairs of principals and resources in the network, and performing a differential update process to selectively refresh portions of the EAD that are affected by later changes of the access policies. In embodiments, the update process also updates the EAD for principals and resources that exceed a staleness limit (e.g. principals and resources that have not been updated for a specified period of time). The update process is managed via a management interface that allows users to view, control, and configure the update process, and examine various metrics data associated with the update process.
