Identity and Access Management
Identity and access management controls which identities can access resources and which operations they may perform. Cloud IAM combines identities, roles, policies, and trust relationships to authorize both people and automated workloads.
Also known as: IAM
Why it matters
Authentication alone does not determine which cloud operations a build may perform.
Practical example
Grant a CI identity permission to upload release artifacts without giving it broad account administration rights.
