ABSTRACT:
A distributed user validation and profile management system operates to automatically validate and update user profiles, such as those stored within an organizational security database, to properly reflect the actual positions and rights of various users within the organization to the various organizational assets, such as computer implemented applications. The user validation and profile management system described herein includes a user validation engine which periodically sends notifications in the form of e-mails to various users within the organization to initiate the process of updating and verifying user profile information. The individual users may respond to the validation e-mails by accessing or using an electronic link provided within the validation e-mails to verify their position and status within the organization as well as the position or status of one or more other closely associated users, such as a manager or a subordinate. Failure of the user to respond to the validation e-mail causes the user validation and profile management system to determine that the user profile is invalid when the user attempts to access an application, which thereby prevents the user from being able to access or use networked applications within the organization.
