DIYCorp Automates Secure Offboarding Process

This case study documents how DIYCorp, a retail leader in the home improvement market, partnered with Oomnitza to implement the Separation to Recovery (S2R) Secure Offboarding Process amid significant workforce reductions. Facing the challenge of offboarding several thousand employees due to economic factors, DIYCorp sought to enhance efficiency and compliance in their IT operations. The S2R process was fully implemented within 10 business days, leveraging Oomnitza's low-code workflow engine to automate previously manual tasks. The integration with various systems, including Workday and Okta, allowed for seamless access revocation and equipment recovery. As a result, DIYCorp achieved a 98% recovery rate of endpoints and a 96% reduction in access revocation time, all while maintaining compliance with CIS and NIST frameworks. The automation of the offboarding process not only streamlined operations but also significantly reduced the burden on the IT team, allowing them to focus on critical business projects.
