  Identity and access management in the cloud refers to the processes, technologies, and policies for managing cloud systems identities and controlling how these identities can be used to access cloud resources. Three separate processes are used in most cloud identity and access management solutions:

  • Identity provisioning and storage
  • Authentication
  • Authorization

  Identity management in a cloud system requires a complex collection of technologies to manage authentication, authorization and access control across distributed environments. These environments might include assets both on the internal cloud, which would be an on-premises private cloud, and services accessed on the public cloud. These environments can also cross-security domains, as when two enterprise-level organizations collaborate and enable cross-domain access to users from the partner security domain. You can learn more about these topics in the article Identity and Access Management in the Cloud.

  Let's talk about that article and the topics of identity and access management in the cloud! Use this thread to get it started.

  Thanks!
