Identity and Access Management (IAM)
Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a framework that ensures the right people have the right access to resources in an organization. It involves managing user identities, such as employees or customers, and controlling what they can see or do within systems and applications. IAM solutions typically include user authentication (like passwords), authorization (defining permissions), and user provisioning (creating and managing user accounts). By implementing IAM, organizations enhance security, protect sensitive information, and ensure compliance with regulations, while also streamlining user access to necessary tools and data.
