[Bug][cyber] False positive block on cloud IAM role enumeration and least-privilege policy review (req_011CcUFeRHE9JvWSttJS2mGt)

Type: Cybersecurity safety-filter false positive · Work domain (heuristic): cloud-iam

Why this is a false positive

Cloud IAM configuration review and policy auditing are standard, defensive security engineering tasks performed daily by cloud platform teams; they do not involve offensive techniques, exploitation, or harm-enabling content. The safety block fired on a request that described or analyzed access-control configurations in a cloud environment — work that falls squarely within authorized infrastructure hardening and least-privilege enforcement. Flagging routine IAM analysis as a cybersecurity threat conflates defensive platform engineering with offensive security research, producing false positives that block legitimate production work.
