Description

Is there any tool/utility available which can automatically suggest how to write size the policy in case there are broad access or "Allow *" access?

If we want to suggest a user that a given policy is broad and then by using Access Analyzer/CloudTrail logs, can we suggest which is the right size for this policy? I have already tried Policy Sentry but that would require defining the policy manually. I am looking for an automated solution.

Thanks for your help.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the requested automation around broad IAM or "Allow *" policies, using AWS Access Analyzer and CloudTrail logs as the named inputs. The issue does not identify a file, entry point, test, or concrete completion criteria; done would require defining an automated way to suggest a narrower policy.
