Abstract
Provided herein are systems and methods of managing permissions for applications deployed in a distributed computing infrastructure. An exemplary system includes an access management server having a processing device, a distributed computing infrastructure in communication with the management server having a plurality of resource instances and a request log, an administration system having a security application executing thereon. The security application has access policies associated with each of a plurality of applications. The processing device of the management server: receives application request information from the request log describing requests made by a first application being monitored by the access management server. The management server receives an access policy describing a set of accessible APIs associated with the first application from the security application and determines that access to a first API of the set should be removed, and modifies the access policy to remove access to the first API.
