Policy analysis [107, 126, 54, 10]. Techniques developed in this field take a currently implemented access control policy and a set of properties that we want to make sure the access control policy satisfies. Policy analysis uses logic-based frameworks to validate the properties against the policies. The properties are specified by policy administrators in formal languages and usually specify requirements described in the organizational security policy. Policy analysis counteracts privilege abuse by inspecting if a policy is granting permissions to users as intended by the security policy
