Serverless IAM: Implementing IAM in Serverless Architectures with Lessons from the Security Trenches

When I first began working with serverless architectures in 2018, I quickly discovered that my traditional security playbook wasn’t going to cut it.

After several years of implementing IAM strategies for serverless applications across various industries, I’ve compiled the approaches that have proven most effective in real-world scenarios. This article shares these insights, focusing on practical Python implementations that address the unique security challenges of serverless environments.
