  3. Assemble the request context, log the request, authenticate the principal
  4. Authenticate the principal, evaluate the policies, assemble the request context

Answer: A. Authenticate the principal, assemble the request context, evaluate the policies

AWS authenticates first where required, gathers the request context to find the applicable policies, then evaluates them against that context.
