Set up workforce access to AWS resources
Set up how your workforce users authenticate and access AWS resources through IAM Identity Center. This section covers the following components that govern workforce user access to your AWS environment:
-
Authentication sessions – Understand how IAM Identity Center manages different types of user sessions, from interactive portal sessions to background application sessions, and how they interact with each other.
-
User access management – Configure session durations, disable user accounts, and implement organization-wide access blocks to maintain security and compliance.
-
Password management – For users created in the Identity Center directory, set password requirements, handle user credential setup, and manage password resets for users.
-
Multi-factor authentication – For users created in the Identity Center directory, enhance security with MFA using authenticator apps, security keys, or built-in authenticators to protect user sign-ins.
