Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a foundational service in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) that enables secure authentication and fine-grained authorization across users, groups, and cloud resources.In this course, learn about the core concepts of IAM and how they are implemented in OCI, and the roles of authentication and authorization in enforcing least privilege and managing access at scale. Next, examine resource and instance principals and how policies govern access across these entities. Finally, discover how IAM integrates with OCI’s broader architecture, the roles involved in structuring access control, and how to enable secure access to the OCI Console.This course is part of a series designed to prepare learners for the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure 2025 Certified Foundations Associate (1Z0-1085-25) certification.
