PowerShell
Security and flexibility for users
PowerShell is THE multifunctional tool in the Microsoft world.
As an IAM solution, however, it is only good for the person who wrote the script – until now!
Integrate PowerShell in the IAM system
For users and permissions in Microsoft 365 and Active Directory
- Companies use one interface for Active Directory / M365 and hybrid IT environments
- Users and managers execute PS scripts – Delegate user lifecycle management
- Use existing PS scripts, integrate them into IDM and execute them in an auditable manner (logging)
- Execute tasks that are hidden in Microsoft 365 / AAD
- The complete, existing Microsoft infrastructure can be used, just like many other systems. PowerShell is widely used, even beyond Microsoft Apps.
- Enable Identity Access Management with PowerShell – secure & for all users
FirstWare IDM-Portal enables the comprehensive automation of all identity management tasks.
Advantages of PowerShell
The extensive possibilities to do just about anything
PowerShell can be used to simplify and automate many AD/AAD/M365 management tasks.
Many admins take advantage of this and build helpful PS scripts for daily routines. This allows IT departments to automate more tasks and complete them faster. However, the tasks remain in the hands of IT.
If the script author changes, it often becomes difficult.
IDM-Portal is an IAM solution with an integrated PowerShell provider. PS scripts run automatically and at the right moment.
