AWS Creates New Policy-Based Access Control Language Cedar
All of the sdks support client side monitoring (CSM), so these sort of tools can be built client side. https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/1.10.46/gui...
afaics the only challenge is mapping some of the apis to iam as its only 85% 1:1
There's also tools for helping with iam like (generator, and linter)

Policy Sentry - IAM Least Privilege Policy Generator
It is an open source initiative from Salesforce. Using Policy Sentry, it is easy to automate the creation of IAM policies with little knowledge on security.

Starting your Cloud Security Journey
You can use tools like policy_sentry to create least privilege IAM policies.

I built a tool which automatically suggests least-privilege IAM policies
The tool is in a similar space to iamlive, policy_sentry, and consoleme (all of which are worth checking out too if you're interested in making AWS security easier) but the main points of difference I see are:

Anyone tried to create a halfway decent least privilege policy for a CDK deployment?
There are tons of other escape hatches, so it's a pretty big moving target. If you'd like to get a hint about your setup, I'd suggest trying: https://github.com/nccgroup/PMapper

Graphviz: Open-source graph visualization software
I maintain an open-source project [1] that uses graphs to model data. I wanted to make my project as accessible as possible, so Graphviz was perfect since it's dead-simple to install and use on all major OS platforms.

Show HN: Principal Mapper v1.1.0 – AWS IAM Security Analysis
Hi HN!
Principal Mapper is a tool + library for analyzing and securing your AWS IAM configuration. It generates a model of your account and/or organization and uses it to give you a better idea of the effective permissions of your IAM Users and Roles. It has privilege escalation detection built-in and is hopefully written in a way that will let you extend it for your use-cases.
This v1.1.0 update covers more types of policies (resource policies, permission boundaries, session policies, SCPs), supports AWS Organizations, enables cross-account checks, and more!
