In this course, you will explore basic architecture and terminology of AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM). You will learn about the advantages of using IAM and how it integrates with services. IAM enables you to manage access to Amazon Web Services (AWS) offerings and resources securely. Using IAM, you can create and manage AWS users and groups with permissions to allow or deny their access to AWS resources. IAM is a feature of your AWS account offered at no additional charge. You will be charged only for use of other AWS services by your users. Course provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS).
