Identity Authentication and Access Control

Identity Authentication

No matter whether you access CTS through the console or APIs, you are required to provide the identity credential and verify the identity validity. In addition, login and login authentication policies are provided to harden identity authentication security. CTS uses Identity and Access Management (IAM) for three identity authentication modes: passwords, access keys, and temporary access keys. Login protection and login authentication policies are provided.

Access Control

If you need to assign different permissions to employees in your enterprise to access your CTS resources, IAM is a good choice for fine-grained permissions management. IAM provides identity authentication, permissions management, and access control, helping you secure access to your Huawei Cloud resources. For details, see Permissions Management.
