Compare AWS IAM Identity Center vs. Auth0

AWS IAM Identity Center streamlines the process of managing access across various AWS accounts and business applications from a single location. It provides users with a unified portal to easily access their designated accounts and applications. Administrators have the ability to centrally control user permissions, tailoring them according to the specific roles and responsibilities of team members. The service seamlessly integrates with multiple identity providers, such as Microsoft Active Directory, Okta, Ping Identity, JumpCloud, and Microsoft Entra ID, while also adhering to standards like SAML 2.0 and SCIM for efficient user provisioning. IAM Identity Center enhances security through attribute-based access control, enabling the selection of user attributes like cost center, title, or locale for finer access management. Additionally, it ensures robust security measures by supporting multi-factor authentication (MFA) through various methods, including FIDO-enabled security keys, biometric authentication, and time-based one-time passwords. This comprehensive approach to access management not only boosts security but also improves user experience by simplifying access to necessary resources.

Auth0 takes a modern approach to Identity and enables organizations to provide secure access to any application, for any user. Auth0 is highly customizable, and simple yet flexible. Safeguarding billions of login transactions each month, Auth0 delivers convenience, privacy, and security so customers can focus on innovation. With Auth0, you can rapidly integrate authentication and authorization for web, mobile, and legacy applications, with new Fine Grained Authorization (FGA) that goes beyond role-based access control.
