During the launch of a new portal, the IT department introduces self-provisioning for employees. They want a method that references the organization's directory for identity checks while letting staff create their own access. Which method achieves these requirements with strong validation?
Assign help desk staff to manually input each user based on a phone call requesting access
Synchronize accounts with a third-party solution that does not connect to the local database for identity validation
Use an automated script to approve registrations once the new user’s email domain matches the organization's domain
Let users manage their own registrations, referencing an internal directory to confirm identity and generate credentials automatically
A user-driven process that references a company-managed database ensures formal validation before credentials are issued, balancing convenience and security. A phone-based manual entry process places more burden on help desk staff and lacks robust checks. Email domain checks alone do not validate identity details in depth. A third-party aggregator without an internal interface may bypass critical validation steps, weakening security.
