Abstract
Systems and methods for providing least privilege access to a resource within a secured server are disclosed. The systems and method can include receiving an access request from a client requesting access to the resource, the access request comprising a role or policy associated with the client and one or more actions associated with the resource. A rules engine can be initialized, the engine defining one or more rules usable by the system to determine whether the access request complies with a least privilege policy. The systems and method can analyze the role or policy and the access request with the rules engine to determine whether the access request complies with the least privilege policy. When the access request complies with the rules, access to the resource can be granted; when the access request does not comply with the rules, access to the resource can be denied.
