Interoperable functions

The eight management and governance functions, supported by AWS services and AWS Partner solutions, work together and interoperate to reduce complexity. Outputs from functions are used to inform or integrate with other functions.

For identity management this includes:

• Specific identity Controls included within your preventive and detective mechanisms.

• Network connectivity designed as a complement to identity, forming a least privilege boundary for your environments.

• Security management with specific capabilities to remediate and address identity-related incidents.

• Using your Service management solution as the record of change for your identity constructs.

• Incorporating all Identity and access management activities across the Monitoring and observability functions so that they provide evidentiary findings for audit and compliance needs.

• Enabling Cloud Financial Management with identity management to provide specific cost and usage by defined roles and groups.

• As cloud assets are Sourced and distributed, defining identity and access policies in a manner that restricts controls the range of operations.
