AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM)
You want to manage access to AWS services and resources securely with fine-grained access control, integration with your corporate directory, and enforcing multi-factor authentication (MFA) for highly privileged users. Adding MFA for your AWS IAM and root users is an AWS IAM best practice.
