explain why identity is the main security boundary in cloud systems.

Planned topics

  • Every request should answer: who is calling, what may they do, from what context.
  • Four identity populations: workforce, customers, partners, workloads (software).
  • Strong identity with least privilege limits damage when something is compromised.
  • Network controls remain useful but do not replace identity (ARC-018).
