Overview

Identity and Access Management (IAM) at MARCO ensures that the right individuals and services have appropriate access to resources in a secure and efficient manner. IAM encompasses various components, including user management, authentication methods, and access controls.

Types of users​

At MARCO, users can be broadly categorized into:

Individual users​

These are regular users who interact with MARCO's platform, typically through a user interface. They can be developers, administrators, or any other individual accessing MARCO's services.

For more information, see Users.

Service accounts​

These are non-human users designed for machine-to-machine communication. Service accounts represent automated processes, servers, IoT devices, and other entities that require access to MARCO's APIs and services.

For more information,see Service account.

Privileges​

For an API call to be authorized by MARCO, an identity must have assigned a role with the required privileges on the target resource.
