Pattern

regexPY
\b(?:AKIA|ASIA)[0-9A-Z]{16}\b   (flags: g)

Python (re) code

pyPython
import re

pattern = re.compile(r"\b(?:AKIA|ASIA)[0-9A-Z]{16}\b")
input_text = "AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE"
for m in pattern.finditer(input_text):
    print(m.group(0))

Stdlib `re` module — no third-party dependency. Works on Python 3.6+.

How the pattern works

Starts with AKIA (long-term user key) or ASIA (short-term STS session key), followed by exactly 16 uppercase alphanumeric characters. Word boundaries prevent partial matches.
