Abstract

A customer of a policy management service may use an interface to access a graphical composer and generate one or more graphical representations of policies that may be applicable to the customer's one or more resources. Once the customer has created a graphical representation of a policy, the policy management service may generate a permission model based at least on the graphical representation of the policy to perform one or more simulations and determine whether the requested policy includes any errors or conflicts. If the one or more simulations result in the requested policy including no errors or conflicts, the policy management service may serialize the permission model to create a representation of the policy in a policy language. This representation of the policy may then be used to control access to the customer's one or more resources in accordance with the policy.
