Organizations undertake complex and costly projects to model high-quality Access Control Policies (ACPs). Once built, these policies must be maintained and managed in an ongoing process to keep their quality high. Insufficient maintenance leads to inaccurate authorization decisions and increases the policies' administrative effort and susceptibility to errors. While the initial modeling of ACPs has received significant research interest, their optimization is not yet covered as broadly. This work provides a theoretical foundation for ACP quality and its optimization. Furthermore, it analyzes how existing research addresses optimization of ACPs with regard to six crucial optimization dimensions. It presents a structured literature survey tracing these optimization dimensions, the contributed research artifact and data requirements. Building on this literature catalogue, this work elaborates on inaccuracies for user permission assignments, data availability, minimal perturbation and recommendation-based optimization.
