Patent number: 11394661Abstract: Techniques are described for using compositional reasoning techniques to perform role reachability analyses relative to collections of user accounts and roles of a cloud provider network. Delegated role-based resource management generally is a method for controlling access to resources in cloud provider networks and other distributed systems. Many cloud provider networks, for example, implement identity and access management subsystems using this approach, where the concept of “roles” is used to specify which resources can be accessed by people, software, or (recursively) by other roles. An abstraction of the role reachability analysis is provided that can be used as input to a model-checking application to reason about such role reachability questions (e.g., which roles of an organization are reachable from other roles).Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2020Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: John Byron Cook, Neha Rungta, Andrew Jude Gacek, Daniel George Peebles, Carsten Varming

Publication number: 20220191205Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for analysis of role reachability with transitive tags are disclosed. An access control analyzer determines a graph comprising a plurality of nodes and one or more edges. The nodes represent roles in a provider network hosting resources. The roles are associated with access control policies granting or denying access to individual resources. One or more of the access control policies grant or deny access based (at least in part) on one or more key-value attributes. The access control analyzer determines, based (at least in part) on a role reachability analysis of the graph, whether a first role can assume a second role using one or more role assumption steps for a particular state of the one or more attributes. The one or more attributes may comprise one or more transitive attributes that persist during the one or more role assumption steps.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2020Publication date: June 16, 2022Applicant: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: John Byron Cook, Neha Rungta, Carsten Varming, Daniel George Peebles, Daniel Kroening, Alejandro Naser Pastoriza

Publication number: 20220191206Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for analysis of role reachability using policy complements are disclosed. An access control analyzer determines two nodes in a graph that potentially have a common edge. The nodes correspond to roles in a provider network, and the roles are associated with first and second access control policies that grant or deny access to resources. The access control analyzer performs a role reachability analysis that determines whether the first role can assume the second role for a particular state of one or more key-value tags. The role reachability analysis determines a third access control policy authorizing a negation of a role assumption request for the second role. The role reachability analysis performs analysis of the third access control policy with respect to a role assumption policy for the second role for the particular state of the one or more key-value tags.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2020Publication date: June 16, 2022Applicant: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: John Byron Cook, Neha Rungta, Carsten Varming, Daniel George Peebles, Daniel Kroening, Alejandro Naser Pastoriza
