What is identity and access management in cloud computing?

The IAM identity center allows workforce users to access AWS accounts differently from cloud applications, where IAM users are users who can access accounts that originate from and are created by those accounts.

To export a report of IAM Identity Center identities and their assignments:

• The user will run the script in a PowerShell command line.
• Script will assume the named profile for AWS CLI. This will give you access to the IAM Identity Center.
• The script will recover the SSO identity configurations from IAM Identity Center.
• The script develops a CSV file in the exact directory on the local workstation where the script was saved.

Firewall is a software to prevent external access to a system. It prevents your system from any unauthorized access.

The Compute Engine Viewer role provides read-only access to get and list Compute Engine resources. The role includes the following permissions:

• compute.disks.get
• compute.disks.list
• compute.images.get
• compute.images.list
• compute.instances.get
• compute.instances.list
• compute.machineTypes.get
• compute.machineTypes.list
• compute.networks.get
• compute.networks.list
• compute.projects.get
• compute.regions.get
• compute.regions.list
• compute.zones.get
• compute.zones.list

AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a web service that helps you securely control access to AWS resources for your users. You use IAM to control who can use your AWS resources (authentication) and what resources they can use and in what ways (authorization).
