• Key Concepts: 
  Identity and access management (IAM) is a component of SAP's BC-SRV-APS Cloud-Based Application Services. It is a set of processes and technologies that enable organizations to manage digital identities, control access to resources, and protect data from unauthorized access. IAM helps organizations ensure that only authorized users have access to the resources they need, while also providing a secure environment for data storage and processing. 
  
  How to use it: 
  IAM can be used to manage user identities, control access to resources, and protect data from unauthorized access. It can be used to create user accounts, assign roles and permissions, and manage authentication methods. Additionally, IAM can be used to monitor user activity and detect suspicious behavior. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using IAM, it is important to ensure that all users have unique passwords and that they are regularly changed. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all users are assigned the appropriate roles and permissions for their job functions. Finally, it is important to regularly monitor user activity for any suspicious behavior.
