Selected Answer: B
AWS IAM Access Analyzer is a service that helps analyze resource access policies to identify any potential security risks or policy misconfigurations. It automatically reviews policies and provides actionable recommendations for securing access to AWS resources. IAM Access Analyzer uses automated reasoning to analyze policies, including resource-based policies and IAM policies. It checks for any potential vulnerabilities, unintended access, or over-permissive access permissions that might be present in the policies. It can help identify issues such as overly permissive access, wildcard permissions, and other security risks. With IAM Access Analyzer, users can review the policy findings, understand the impact of the identified issues, and take appropriate actions to correct and secure their access policies. It helps users ensure that their policies align with security best practices and functional requirements.
