Access & Audit Review

Access drifting from least-privilege. Streams the diffs to your SIEM.

Target KPI Audit coverage
Executes in ≤ 24 hours
System of record Cedar policies · SIEM
Trigger condition

Effective permissions diverge from the Cedar policy set in your repository, or a grant goes unused for 60 days.

Write-back

Policy diff raised as a pull request in your repository; every change streamed to your SIEM as JSONL.

Every write is gated on an approver role you name. Nothing runs unattended.

Procedure
  1. Diff effective access against the policy set that your repository says should be in force.
  2. Separate drift from deliberate exception, and flag exceptions with no expiry, which is how drift starts.
  3. Rank by blast radius rather than count: one over-broad service account matters more than fifty stale user grants.
  4. Raise the diff as a pull request against the policy repository, so the fix goes through your existing review.
  5. Close when the PR merges and effective access matches the policy set again.
Outcome metric

Time-to-close on access drift, and the count of standing grants above least-privilege, over each quarter.

The case closes on this number, not on the action being taken. A playbook without a close condition is a dashboard.
