Identity / Access Management
Glossary Page
Identity & Access Management (IAM) controls access to data and provides answers to two fundamental questions: Who is the user? The user's identity is verified through authentication and typically stored in an employee directory. What permissions does the user have? This question relates to authorization for specific actions. For example, the right to read or edit data may be tied to the user's role. IAM is an established concept that is also used in big data solutions.
