# IAM Audit — Identity & Access Management Review and Design

Cover the identity and access layer end-to-end: audit existing setup, design from scratch, plan migrations, and codify the patterns most teams get wrong. This is the consultant-style skill — not just "what's misconfigured" but "what should this look like."

Three modes — pick the one that matches the engagement:
- **Audit** — review what's already deployed, find privilege creep and gaps
- **Design** — greenfield IAM for a new project or new identity provider
- **Migrate** — consolidate multiple identity providers, federate access, move to SSO

Cross-references: `cloud-audit` for the cloud-provider audit (broader than IAM), `container-audit` for K8s RBAC and ServiceAccounts (orchestration-layer identity).

## Mode 1 — Audit existing IAM

### Cloud provider IAM

**AWS:**
- IAM users with console access — should be zero in mature setups (use SSO/Identity Center)
- IAM users with permanent access keys — every one is a credential rotation problem; replace with role assumption via SSO or IAM Roles Anywhere
- Permissions boundaries set on every role that can create roles (prevents privilege escalation via `iam:CreateRole` + `iam:AttachRolePolicy`)
- `AdministratorAccess` policy attachments — flag every one and justify
- Wildcard `Action: "*"` or `Resource: "*"` outside of break-glass roles
- Cross-account trust policies — `Principal: { AWS: "*" }` is open to the world; should be specific account IDs with optional `aws:PrincipalOrgID` condition
- IMDSv2 enforced — `MetadataOptions.HttpTokens: required` on every EC2 launch template
- Service-linked roles audited — they bypass normal restrictions
- Run: `aws accessanalyzer list-findings`, `aws iam generate-credential-report`, `aws iam get-account-authorization-details`

**GCP:**
- `roles/owner` and `roles/editor` are too broad — replace with custom roles or fine-grained `roles/*Admin`
- Service account keys downloaded (`projects.serviceAccounts.keys.create`) — should be zero; use Workload Identity Federation
- Service accounts with `iam.serviceAccountTokenCreator` on themselves = self-impersonation = privilege escalation
- Org-level vs project-level bindings — over-scoped bindings at the org level are silent privilege grants to every project
- `allUsers` / `allAuthenticatedUsers` bindings on any sensitive resource
- Run: `gcloud asset analyze-iam-policy`, `gcloud policy-intelligence query-activity`, Recommender API

**Azure:**
- `Owner` and `Contributor` role assignments at subscription/management-group scope
- Custom roles with `*` actions
- Conditional Access policies cover *every* sign-in surface (legacy auth, service principals, break-glass accounts excluded with explicit reason)
- Privileged Identity Management (PIM) used for all Global Admin / Privileged Role Admin / Application Admin roles
- Service principal credentials (client secrets) — should expire and rotate; check expiration dates
- Run: `az role assignment list --all`, Microsoft Graph `auditLogs/signIns`, Microsoft Entra recommendations

### Identity provider

**Okta / Entra ID / Auth0 / Google Workspace:**
- MFA enforced for 100% of users — no "MFA optional" cohort
- Phishing-resistant MFA (FIDO2 / WebAuthn / hardware key) for admins; TOTP is the minimum for everyone
- Inactive accounts disabled after 30/60/90 days (pick a policy, enforce it)
- Lifecycle automation — joiner / mover / leaver flows are automated, not ticket-driven
- Group-based access — users get permissions via group membership, not direct assignment; group membership is the auditable surface
- Admin separation — privileged admin actions require a separate elevated account, not the day-to-day account
- App assignments — every SaaS app reviewed quarterly; orphaned apps (no longer used) removed
- Authentication policies — block legacy protocols (IMAP, POP, SMTP basic auth), enforce device compliance for high-trust apps
- Session lifetime appropriate to sensitivity (admin: short, end user: longer with refresh)
- Logs forwarded to SIEM — sign-ins, admin changes, MFA failures

### Application authorization

- Role definitions written down somewhere (not just in code) — `docs/roles.md` or equivalent
- "Admin" is not one role — usually 3-5: support, billing, content moderator, platform admin, security responder
- Per-tenant role isolation — a "tenant admin" of org A cannot read org B even with the same role
- Permission checks centralized — one `can(user, action, resource)` function, not scattered `if (user.role === "admin")` checks throughout
- ABAC where the access decision depends on resource attributes (record owner, tenant, status) — ReBAC tools (Cerbos, OpenFGA, Oso, SpiceDB) when role explosion threatens
- Permission checks logged for the audit trail

### Common audit findings

- **Role explosion** — every new requirement spawned a new role; nobody knows what they all do; nobody dares delete one
- **Permission accretion** — engineers got temporary permissions for an incident, permissions were never revoked
- **Shadow admin** — a non-admin role can `iam:AssumeRole` into admin, transitively
- **Stale break-glass** — emergency-access accounts haven't been tested in 12+ months; nobody knows if they work
- **MFA bypass via legacy auth** — IMAP/POP/SMTP basic auth still works against accounts that "have MFA"
- **Service account sprawl** — more service accounts than humans, half are unused, half are over-privileged

## Mode 2 — Design greenfield IAM

### Principles (the consultant ones, not just OWASP)

1. **Identity provider is the source of truth.** Even for cloud IAM — federate via SAML/OIDC, don't manage users in AWS/GCP/Azure directly.
2. **People get access via groups, not directly.** Direct assignments are auditable noise.
3. **Service accounts are roles.** Don't issue keys; use workload identity federation (AWS IRSA, GCP Workload Identity, Azure Workload Identity, Kubernetes ServiceAccounts → OIDC).
4. **Privileged access is JIT, not standing.** Default to "no access"; grant for a defined window with audit trail (AWS IAM Identity Center + permission sets with session duration, Azure PIM, Okta Workflows, Google JIT via context-aware access).
5. **Break-glass is a tested, alarming path.** Emergency-access accounts exist but are heavily audited and tested quarterly.
6. **Least privilege is observable, not aspirational.** Pull access advisor / unused-access reports monthly; remove what isn't used.
7. **Authorization decisions are logged.** Every `allow` or `deny` should be traceable for incident response.

### Greenfield checklist (web app + cloud)

For a new project, design these in this order:

1. **Pick the identity provider.** Okta or Entra ID for enterprise; Auth0 / Clerk / Stytch / WorkOS for B2B SaaS; Google Workspace for small teams. Don't roll your own.
2. **Define your authorization model.** RBAC is the floor. Add ABAC when permissions depend on record attributes. Use a permission service (Cerbos, OpenFGA, Oso) when permissions get complex enough that an `if` statement in code is no longer readable.
3. **Define your roles before you write code.** What roles will exist in your product? Write them in a doc with one sentence per role describing what they can do. Most products are: end user, end user admin (tenant-scoped), support, billing, content moderator, platform admin.
4. **Federate cloud access.** AWS IAM Identity Center + your IdP; GCP Workload Identity Federation + your IdP; Azure AD as the source of truth for Azure roles.
5. **Workload identity, not keys.** EC2 → IAM Roles; EKS → IRSA / Pod Identity; ECS → task role; Lambda → execution role; GitHub Actions → OIDC federation. No long-lived keys.
6. **Logging from day 1.** Cloud trail / audit log to a SIEM-bound bucket; deny `*:Delete*` and `*:Put*` on the log bucket from anything but the logging service.
7. **Break-glass account documented and tested.** Two-person rule, hardware MFA, used only for "the IdP is down" scenarios, alarms on every login.

### Auth flow choices (web/mobile clients)

- Public clients (browser, mobile) — OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code with PKCE; never implicit flow (deprecated, leaks tokens)
- Confidential clients (server-to-server) — Client Credentials grant with short-lived access tokens
- First-party native — your IdP's native SDK (Okta, Auth0, Clerk) handles the storage and refresh nuance
- Long-lived refresh tokens stored in HttpOnly Secure cookies; never in `localStorage` (XSS-exfiltratable)
- Token revocation list — your IdP should support it; if it doesn't, you have a JWT problem (see `owasp-audit` A07)

## Mode 3 — Migrate / consolidate

### Common migrations

- **From AWS IAM users → AWS IAM Identity Center (SSO):** map users to permission sets via groups; rotate / disable IAM user access keys with a deadline; the long tail is service accounts and CI/CD — convert those to OIDC federation
- **From Active Directory → Entra ID:** sync with Entra Connect, then add Conditional Access; the hard part is legacy auth (SMB, NTLM, on-prem LDAP) — those need their own deprecation plan
- **From "Google Workspace as IdP" → dedicated IdP (Okta / Entra):** Google handles email but provisioning into 30 SaaS apps starts to drag; the migration is mostly SCIM provisioning + SAML federation; users barely notice
- **From `roles/owner` everywhere → custom roles (GCP):** use Recommender API to suggest least-privilege replacements; cut over one project at a time

### Migration playbook (works for all of the above)

1. **Inventory current state.** Who has what access where? Spreadsheet is fine. Include service accounts.
2. **Decide the target state.** Roles defined, groups defined, IdP chosen, federation pattern picked.
3. **Set up the target in parallel.** New IdP / IAM Identity Center / etc. lives alongside the current setup. No cutover yet.
4. **Pilot with a small group.** 5-10 people use the new path, find friction, fix it.
5. **Migrate in waves.** By team or by app, not big bang. Each wave has a rollback procedure.
6. **Deprecate the old path with a deadline.** Set a "by X date, the old IAM users are disabled" — and enforce it. Migrations without deadlines never finish.
7. **Audit-trail the cutover.** Document who moved, when, what they had, what they got, who approved.

## Boundaries

- Only audit accounts and identity providers the user has authorization for
- Read-only operations during audit (no `iam:AttachPolicy`, no role creation, no user disablement)
- For migrations: never disable a user without a confirmed rollback path
- Refuse to help bypass MFA, recover credentials by social engineering, or design backdoor access
- Privilege escalation chains found during audit are documented as findings, not exploited
