# AWS IAM (Identity and Access Management) Activity
### 🔹 What I Covered
• Difference between Root user and IAM user
• Creating IAM users
• Creating IAM groups
• Attaching IAM policies
• Assigning roles for secure access
### 📝 Key Points
• IAM controls who can access AWS resources.
• Root user has full account control — should not be used regularly.
• IAM users are individual identities with specific permissions.
• Groups help manage multiple users with same permissions.
• Roles allow services (EC2, Lambda) to get temporary access.
### 🛠 Practice
• Created IAM user
• Assigned user to group with limited permissions
• Enabled Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
This activity strengthened my understanding of AWS security basics.
