Abstract

Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for automatically processing diversely structured operational policies. Techniques include identifying first and second operational policies, determining if the policies use different vocabulary or syntax, applying a language processing protocol to the policies, and normalizing the policies. Other techniques include making available the normalized policies to a computing resource, identifying a set of related rules based on the normalizing, identifying that one of the polices has an unnecessarily high level of privileges, and reducing the level of privileges according to a least-privileges policy.
