Abstract: A central cloud computing account may aggregate events (e.g., configuration change events, policy change events, computing resource-based events, AWS resource policy modification events, etc.) from a plurality of non-centralized (e.g., distributed across various geographic regions, etc.) cloud computing accounts. The central cloud computing account may implement standardized and/or common formatting for configuration information (e.g., computing resource policy information, AWS resource policy information, etc.) indicated by each of the aggregated events. The standardized and/or common formatting may facilitate versioning to indicate changes to the configuration information for each of the non-centralized cloud computing accounts.
