How SCIM deprovisioning works

User deprovisioning is the process of removing access from users when they no longer need it, which involves disabling user accounts and access to applications and data. This is crucial for security reasons as every active employee account post-employment or after a role change can be a potential backdoor for unauthorized access, data leaks, and security breaches. SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management) is a standard designed to simplify IT admins' lives by automating the process of creating, updating, or deleting user accounts, groups, and permissions in only one system, with these changes propagated in real-time to all other apps the company is using. WorkOS provides an integration for SCIM deprovisioning that can be implemented into your app, allowing you to automate user provisioning and deprovisioning and respond to changes as soon as they are sent from your identity provider (IdP).
