Question

Shruthi J · Accepted Answer

Long term credentials in aws are the access key & secret key given to IAM users. It is advisable to avoid using them on public servers because: If exposed anyone can use them to access aws resources If leaked they can be misused They give full access based on the user's permissions It is safer to use IAM roles or temporary credentials instead
