Identity and Access Management (IAM) Policy

Description

IAM Policy establishes the framework for managing access to organization resources and systems. It emphasizes the principles of user identity management, access control, strong authentication, and resource ownership. Key guidelines include:
– User Identity Management: Ensuring every user has a unique account associated with an individual and promptly removing accounts no longer needed.
– Access Control: Implementing the principle of least privilege, restricting access to sensitive resources, regular access reviews, and robust authentication and authorization mechanisms.
– Password and Authentication: Enforcing strong password policies and requiring multi-factor authentication for sensitive systems.
– Resource Ownership: Designating owners for each resource to manage access and monitoring.
– Monitoring and Auditing: Logging and reviewing access, conducting security audits, and ensuring compliance.
– Incident Response: Having a plan in place to respond to security breaches and unauthorized access.
– Training and Awareness: Providing user training and periodic security awareness programs.
