What is Identity and Access Management?

Identity and Access Management (IAM) refers to the security discipline that enables the right individuals to access the right resources at the right times for the right reasons. IAM encompasses the management of digital identities, authentication, authorization, and access control to systems, applications, and data. The goal of IAM is to ensure that only authorized individuals have access to critical resources, while preventing unauthorized access. This is achieved through the implementation of policies, procedures, and technologies that govern the identification, authentication, authorization, and accountability of users and the management of their access rights.
