Time-based policies - Identity and Access Management (IAM)

Abstract

This project aims to design time-based policies for Identity and Access Management (IAM) to enable resource admins to manage access privileges based on time and date. IAM plays a crucial role in ensuring that the right entities are granted the appropriate permissions to access cloud resources. The problem addressed is the need for finer access control, allowing only authorized accounts to access resources during a specified time period. The solution proposed is the use of time-based access policies, which restrict access based on time and date, reducing the risk of security breaches. These conditions can be set up to provide one-time temporary access during a specific time and date range, or they can be configured for recurring weekly access. The goal is to provide users with a delightful user experience while ensuring that security is not compromised.
