# Identity and Access Management
|
|
|
|
This guide walks you through Identity and Access Management topics.
|
|
|
|
- [Policies](/guides/identity/policies.html) are used to instrument
|
|
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) by specifying access privileges. Authoring of
|
|
policies is probably the first step the Vault administrator performs. This guide
|
|
walks you through creating example policies for `admin` and `provisioner` users.
|
|
|
|
- [AppRole Pull Authentication](/guides/identity/authentication.html) guide
|
|
that introduces the steps to generate tokens for machines or apps by enabling
|
|
AppRole auth method.
|
|
|
|
- [AppRole with Terraform and Chef](/guides/identity/approle-trusted-entities.html)
|
|
guide explains how AppRole auth method integrates with Terraform and Chef.
|
|
This guide is for anyone who wishes to reproduce the demo introduced during
|
|
the [Delivering Secret Zero: Vault AppRole with Terraform and
|
|
Chef](https://www.hashicorp.com/resources/delivering-secret-zero-vault-approle-terraform-chef)
|
|
webinar.
|
|
|
|
- [Token and Leases](/guides/identity/lease.html) guide helps you
|
|
understand how tokens and leases work in Vault. The understanding of the
|
|
lease hierarchy and expiration mechanism helps you plan for break glass
|
|
procedures and more.
