What is IAM?

IAM (Identity and Access Management) is a framework of policies and technologies for ensuring that the right users (identities) have the appropriate access to technology resources. It's used to manage digital identities, authenticate users, and authorize their access to various systems, applications, and data. Common uses include single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and role-based access control (RBAC).
