Automated user migration and management of AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) resources

In this project based on a real-world scenario, I acted as Cloud Specialist with the mission to migrate users in an automated way and manage AWS IAM (Identity and Access Management) resources.

There were 100 users that needed to be migrated and have MFA (Multi-factor authentication) enabled on their accounts, as this is a security best practice.

To avoid repetitive and manual tasks in the AWS console, I needed to think about automating the processes.

Using GitBash with AWS CLI and Shell Script, I was able to run a script that would create multiple users automatically using a CSV file. After the users were added to their respective group assignments, I created a new group policy the enforce MFA authentication.

Below you can see the screen shots on how I did the project.
