Policy: AWS > Well-Architected Tool > AWS Well-Architected Framework > Security > SEC 02. How do you manage identities for people and machines? > Rely on a centralized identity provider

For workforce identities, rely on an identity provider that enables you to manage identities in a centralized place. This enables you to create, manage, and revoke access from a single location making it easier to manage access. This reduces the requirement for multiple credentials and provides an opportunity to integrate with HR processes.

See Rely on a centralized identity provider for more information.
