Human and Non-Human Identity and Access Management - Amazon Cognito

Implement secure, scalable authentication and access control for users, AI agents, and microservices in minutes

What is Amazon Cognito

Amazon Cognito provides comprehensive identity and access management for both human and non-human identities.

✔ Maintain a unified authentication across human and machine identities through one AWS-native service.

✔ Leverage advanced security features to support threat detection and protection against potentially malicious logins.

✔ Preserve user context in automated workflows providing clear attribution for automated actions and improved observability.

Use Cases

    Authenticate communication between your applications, microservices, or APIs using the OAuth 2.0 client-credentials flow. Issue short-lived, scoped tokens instead of using static API keys and secure machine-to-machine calls within your AWS environment.

    Develop modern, secure, microservice-based applications, and more easily connect your application to backend resources and web services.

    Allow customers to sign in directly, or through social or enterprise identity providers, to a hosted UI with your branding.

    Use a variety of multi-tenancy options that provide different levels of policy and tenant isolation for your business.

    Gain secure, role-based access to AWS services, such as Amazon S3, Amazon DynamoDB, and AWS Lambda.
