IAM Related Incidents

Summary	To measure IAM related incidents, it is necessary to define what is an IAM related incident. This requires a classification of IAM related incident classes. This page is a placeholder where to progressively consolidate references to IAM related incident classes.
TODO	Consider moving this classification to a dedicated Incident Classes wiki space to provide plenty of room for documentation and extensions.

Approach

In order to enable the measurement of IAM related, it is necessary to establish a classification of IAM related incident classes. At this point, this page is a placeholder where references to IAM related incident classes are progressively inventories. It is by no mean complete.
