Often organizations have groups whose lifecycle is typically managed via scripts or time-consuming manual processes. These types of groups can be classified as “data-driven” groups. Data-driven groups are groups that should be created automatically, maintained automatically, and retired or deleted automatically based on the attribute query policies leveraging enterprise data from HR or any other authoritative sources. Dynamic Hierarchy policies can be used to entirely automate the lifecycle of these special groups.

EmpowerID’s Dynamic Hierarchies engine is like an autopilot for creating data-driven nested groups in systems like Active Directory and Azure Active Directory. The idea behind Dynamic

Dynamic Group Hierarchies save organizations time, money and improve the ability for users to collaborate effectively.
