Hi HN!<p>Principal Mapper is a tool + library for analyzing and securing your AWS IAM configuration. It generates a model of your account and&#x2F;or organization and uses it to give you a better idea of the effective permissions of your IAM Users and Roles. It has privilege escalation detection built-in and is hopefully written in a way that will let you extend it for your use-cases.<p>This v1.1.0 update covers more types of policies (resource policies, permission boundaries, session policies, SCPs), supports AWS Organizations, enables cross-account checks, and more!<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;nccgroup&#x2F;PMapper" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;nccgroup&#x2F;PMapper</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;research.nccgroup.com&#x2F;2021&#x2F;03&#x2F;29&#x2F;tool-release-principal-mapper-v1-1-0-update&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;research.nccgroup.com&#x2F;2021&#x2F;03&#x2F;29&#x2F;tool-release-princi...</a><p>Happy to answer any questions you have here!
