Abstract

A system and method for detecting a permission escalation event includes querying a security graph to detect a second principal node, representing a second principal, the second principal having a permission to assume a first principal, represented by a first principal node, wherein the security graph stores a representation of a cloud computing environment in which the first principal and second principal are deployed; determining that the first principal node has access to a permission which is not accessible by the second principal node; and generating a permission escalation event.
