IAM Right Sizing Recommendations

This release empowers your organization to implement granular control over cloud access permissions by leveraging the Principles of Least Privilege. We have introduced Right Sizing Recommendations based on individual user activity, and usage pattern of Cloud Users. Where in, depending on the usage of Permissions, either a new Policy should be defined or a complete removal is needed.
