AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM)

Securely manage access to AWS services and resources

AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) enable you to manage access to AWS services and
resources securely. Using IAM, you can create and manage AWS users and groups, and use permissions
to allow and deny their access to AWS resources.

 IAM allows you to manage access to COMPUTE, STORAGE, DATABASE and APPLICATION
SERVICES in the AWS cloud.
 IAM uses access control concepts which we already familiar with such as Users, Groups and
permissions.
