Learn Google Cloud Identity and Access Management (IAM) fundamentals in this 11-minute tutorial that explores roles and permissions essential for securing GCP projects. Discover the core concepts of IAM including the three basic roles - Owner, Editor, and Viewer - and understand why avoiding the Owner role for daily operations follows security best practices. Master the principle of least privilege by learning how to assign specific, limited permissions to developers and team members rather than broad access rights. Explore the differences between roles and permissions, see practical demonstrations of adding users and assigning roles through the GCP Console, and gain insights into building secure and compliant cloud environments. Follow along with hands-on examples that show proper access management techniques for real-world Google Cloud projects.
