Amazon Web Services offers reliable, scalable, and inexpensive cloud computing services. Free to join, pay only for what you use.
Access to web services is available through a web portal called AWS Console.
Once you sign up for Amazon Web Services, you are required to provide a user name and a password.
I strongly recommend enabling 2-factor authentication. With 2-factor authentication, in addition to entering your user credentials, you are required to provide a random number calculated by an authenticator application residing on your mobile phone. Without authenticator, with just username and password, you cannot get access to your AWS account. This way even if your password is stolen your account access will remain protected.

Tip: I recommend Google Authenticator application for AWS account access.
