What is GCP IAM?

GCP IAM (Identity and Access Management) is a service provided by Google Cloud Platform that allows you to manage access control to your Google Cloud resources. It enables you to define who (identity) has what access (role) to Google Cloud resources. This allows organizations to grant granular access to specific Google Cloud resources and prevents unauthorized resource access. IAM is commonly used to manage user permissions, service account authorization, and to enforce the principle of least privilege.
