AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 184

A company wants to organize its users so that the company can grant permissions to the users as a group.
Which AWS service or tool can the company use to meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Security groups
• B. AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM)
• C. Resource groups
• D. AWS Security Hub

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) because it allows organizations to manage user permissions and access policies effectively as a group. Security groups are primarily used for controlling inbound and outbound traffic for AWS resources, while resource groups are used for organizing resources, and AWS Security Hub is focused on security management and compliance.
