You will learn the basics of IAM, consider advantages of using IAM, and explore IAM integration with services. IAM enables you to securely manage access to Amazon Web Services (AWS) offerings and resources. Using IAM, you can create and manage AWS users and groups, and use permissions to allow and 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).
