One of my newest hires “Forgetful Fred” couldn’t get into his account and we delved into what to do.💡 What did we learn?:
  • How to navigate around the IAM console
  • What Access Keys are and when they are appropriate to use.
  • Dove into EC2 credentials and looked at some other services as well
  • Most importantly, don’t trust someone called “Forgetful Fred” with your most privileged credentials!
