IAM Policy Analyzer

Updated May 13, 2026

What this skill does

Reviews IAM policies across cloud providers to identify over-permissive access, unused roles, cross-account trust issues, and privilege escalation paths. Generates a risk-scored findings report with specific remediation recommendations for each policy violation.

Example

PROMPT

We need to review IAM policies for our 50-person engineering org on AWS. We have 200+ IAM roles, a mix of human users, service accounts, and CI/CD pipelines. Concern: possible over-permissive policies from rapid onboarding. We use Organization SCPs and need cross-account trust review.
