Abstract: Systems and methods for enforcing compliance-program conformity during authorization-token generation are presented. Applications may be registered with an identity and access management (IAM) system. The registration of the application may include whether the application is subject to one or more compliance program(s). When an authorization token is requested from the IAM system, the IAM system may (a) determine the set of authorization information needed in the token, and (b) determine whether the application is subject to a compliance program. The IAM system may then check an approval source of record to determine whether the user was legitimately approved for the required authorization prior to granting an authorization token. If there is a mismatch between the approval source of record and the authorization information associated with the user identity, then the mismatch may cause certain mitigation actions to be performed.

Abstract: An identity and access management system including: a processor; and memory including instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: receive an API token request for an authorization token to authorize an application function associated with a target API of an application; determine identity information from the API token request; retrieve attributes associated with the identity information; identify the target API and an API function profile associated with the target API for the application function; filter the attributes associated with the identity information based on the API function profile; generate the authorization token according to the filtered attributes; and transmit the authorization token in response to the API token request.
