- Automation: Use scripting (PowerShell) and tools to automate identity lifecycle processes, reducing manual effort and improving efficiency.
- Security & Compliance: Ensure adherence to security policies, audit requirements, and privacy regulations.
- Incident Response: Handle security incidents related to access management using ITSM platforms (like ServiceNow).
- Stakeholder Collaboration: Work with application owners, developers, and business users to guide them on IAM standards and best practices.
Requirements
- Core IAM Tools: CyberArk, PingID, Active Directory, Azure AD (often implied in enterprise environments).
