What is Identity Services?

Identity Services are a suite of technologies and processes used to manage and control user identities and their access to resources. They typically encompass authentication (verifying who a user is), authorization (determining what a user can access), and identity governance (managing user roles and permissions). Common uses include single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), user provisioning/de-provisioning, and access management, all aimed at improving security and streamlining user access across various applications and systems.
