Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the cloud where data flows like rivers wide
Three gatekeepers watch what enters, what can hide
AWS with IAM keys that unlock doors
Azure RBAC mapping who explores
GCP IAM standing guard with roles defined
Four sacred rules keep secrets intertwined

[Chorus]
Least privilege locks it tight, audit trails shine bright
Environment walls divide, infrastructure scripted right
L-A-E-I, remember how we fly
Cloud controls that never lie, keeping data safe and dry

[Verse 2]
Grant the minimum they need, nothing extra on the side
John from accounting cannot peek where admin secrets hide
Roles and policies like puzzle pieces fit
Each permission carefully chosen, every bit
Zero trust becomes our motto, prove your worth
Smallest access grants the safest berth

[Chorus]
Least privilege locks it tight, audit trails shine bright
Environment walls divide, infrastructure scripted right
L-A-E-I, remember how we fly
Cloud controls that never lie, keeping data safe and dry

[Verse 3]
Every click and every query leaves its mark
Logs illuminate the shadows, pierce the dark
Who accessed what and when they came to call
CloudTrail, Monitor, Logging captures all
Forensics need this breadcrumb trail to trace
When breaches try to hide without a face

[Bridge]
Dev and prod must never meet
Staging keeps them both discrete
Code defines our castle walls
Template-driven, automation calls

[Verse 4]
Terraform and CloudFormation write our rules
JSON declarations, infrastructure tools
Version controlled and peer reviewed each line
No manual clicking, everything defined
Repeatable deployments, errors fade
Infrastructure carved from code we've made

[Chorus]
Least privilege locks it tight, audit trails shine bright
Environment walls divide, infrastructure scripted right
L-A-E-I, remember how we fly
Cloud controls that never lie, keeping data safe and dry

[Outro]
Four pillars standing strong beneath the cloud
IAM trio singing protection loud
Data sleeps securely in this fortress we designed
