Working With AWS Managed Policies, Customer Managed Policies, and Inline Policies
In this lab, we'll explore and work with the different types of IAM policies available: AWS managed policies, customer managed policies, and inline policies. An AWS managed policy is a standalone policy that is created and administered by AWS. A customer managed policy is a standalone policy that you administer in your own AWS account. An inline policy is a policy that's embedded in an IAM identity (a user, group, or role).
