  • Execute large-scale changes such as bulk account disabling, cleanup, and device wiping
  • Generate automated reporting (e.g., AD user attributes, system data extraction)

  • Provision devices and user accounts in accordance with company policies
  • Ensure secure and efficient access management across systems
