One of the most crucial aspects of cloud security is Identity and Access Management (IAM)—because what’s the cloud without secure access? 🌍☁️
Recently, I completed an AWS lab on "Exploring AWS IAM", where I gained practical experience in:
✅ Managing IAM users and groups effectively
✅ Inspecting and understanding IAM policies in real-world scenarios
✅ Assigning permissions and testing access restrictions dynamically
✅ Locating and using the IAM sign-in URL for secure authentication
✅ Evaluating policy effects to enforce the principle of least privilege
IAM is the backbone of AWS security, and mastering it ensures organizations can enforce least privilege access, secure workloads, and prevent unauthorized access. 🚀
For cloud architects and security professionals, how do you approach IAM best practices in your AWS environments? Let’s share insights! 🔍👇
