AWS Identity and Access Management cost saving tips

Optimize your AWS Identity and Access Management costs with these tips

Use IAM roles

Rather than utilizing long-term access keys, leverage IAM roles - these provide temporary credentials, mitigating the need for frequent key rotation or revocation.

Implement least privilege

Establish granular policies only granting necessary permissions - this reduces unneeded access and the risk of incurring unexpected costs.

Utilize IAM groups

Allocate common policies to multiple users via IAM groups rather than duplicating policies. This simplifies access management and makes updating permissions easier.
