Emergency Termination

This app enables IT and HR teams to immediately terminate a user’s access across all critical systems. When a sensitive HR or security issue arises, organizations often need to act before formal processes or data updates occur. With this capability, administrators can instantly cut off access while the situation is being evaluated, ensuring the organization remains protected without waiting for upstream systems—such as HR platforms—to update.

  • Intended Audience: IT or Human Resources

  • Target Scope: Managed users

  • Required Systems: Any target system

Use Case Example

An employee becomes the subject of a sensitive HR investigation involving potential misconduct. HR needs time to gather facts and follow internal procedures, but the employee still has active access to email, collaboration tools, internal applications, and confidential data.

Problem

Waiting for the HR system to update the employee’s status—or relying on manual, system‑by‑system deactivation—creates several risks:

  • The employee may access or exfiltrate sensitive information

  • IT must scramble to disable accounts across multiple systems

  • There is no centralized audit trail of who terminated access and when

  • Delays increase organizational exposure during a critical moment

How the app solves it

The app provides a single action that immediately terminates the user’s access across all managed systems.

This includes:

  • Disabling the account

  • Revoking group memberships

  • Blocking sign‑ins

  • Cutting off access tokens and sessions

  • Logging the action for audit and compliance

HR and IT can act instantly, even before formal HR data changes occur.

Outcome

  • The organization is protected from unauthorized access during sensitive situations

  • IT avoids manual, error‑prone deactivation steps

  • HR can proceed with its investigation without operational risk

  • All actions are tracked, auditable, and consistent with security policy

  • Access is removed quickly, cleanly, and with minimal disruption to internal processes
