GOOGLE CLOUD IDENTITY & ACCESS MANAGEMENT Fine-grained access control and visibility for centrally managing cloud resources

Enterprise-Grade Access Control





Google Cloud Identity & Access Management (IAM) lets administrators authorize who can take action on specific resources, giving you full control and visibility to manage cloud resources centrally. For established enterprises with complex organizational structures, hundreds of workgroups and potentially many more projects, Cloud IAM provides a unified view into security policy across your entire organization, with built-in auditing to ease compliance processes.

Enterprise Identity Made Easy


Leverage Cloud Identity, Google Cloud’s built-in managed identity to easily create or sync user accounts across applications and projects. Cloud Identity makes it easy to provision and manage users and groups, set up single sign-on, and configure multi-factor authentication directly from the Google Admin Console. With Cloud Identity you get access to the GCP Organization which enables you to centrally manage projects via the Cloud Resource Manager.

The Right Roles

Cloud IAM provides the right tools to manage resource permissions with minimum fuss and high automation. Map job functions within your company to groups and roles. Users get access only to what they need to get the job done, and admins can easily grant default permissions to entire groups of users.



Granular Resource Control

Cloud IAM enables you to grant access to cloud resources at fine-grained levels, well beyond project-level access.

Simplicity First


We recognize that an organization’s internal structure and policies can get complex fast. Projects, workgroups, and managing who has authorization to do what all change dynamically. Cloud IAM is designed with simplicity in mind: a clean, universal interface lets you manage access control across all Google Cloud Platform resources consistently. So you learn it once, then apply everywhere.




Built-In Audit Trail

A full audit trail history of permissions authorization, removal, and delegation gets surfaced automatically for your admins. Cloud IAM lets you focus on business policies around your resources and makes compliance easy.


Access Control Your Way

Control resource permissions using a variety of options: graphically from the Cloud Platform console, programmatically via Cloud IAM methods, or using the gcloud command line interface.
