Access Management

TODO: Write content for this page.

Control who can call your canister functions. Cover controller-only functions, caller principal checking, anonymous principal rejection, Rust guards pattern, role-based access control, and the who_am_i pattern for debugging identity. Include inline code examples (~10 lines) for basic caller checking in both Rust and Motoko. Written as a checklist, not an essay.
