Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a 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 and authorization of users, and access to systems, networks, and applications. It also includes the management of user access rights and privileges, as well as the enforcement of security policies across an organization. By controlling access to company resources and monitoring user activities, IAM can help to reduce the risk of data breaches, fraud, and other malicious activities.
