The following tutorials present complete end-to-end procedures for common tasks for AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM). They are intended for a lab-type environment, with fictitious company names, user names, and so on. Their purpose is to provide general guidance. They are not intended for direct use in a production environment without careful review and adaptation to meet the unique needs of your organization's environment.
