User account deprovisioning

What is user account deprovisioning?

Deprovisioning, or unprovisioning, of user accounts is an automated process of removing a user's access to a system or IT resources, either because they no longer need it or because they are leaving the company.

This includes account deactivation, data deletion, and hardware recovery. This minimizes security risks related to shadow IT and compliance.

In French, we refer to it as account deprovisioning. This is the process of deactivating or deleting user accounts when they are no longer needed. This allows access to be revoked and system security to be guaranteed.
