Pitt Digital will disable Active Directory entries — records that manage device authentication and access to University resources — that have not been used in six months or more. This annual cleanup, developed in collaboration with the University’s Internal Audit department, is part of our ongoing process for keeping the directory current and reducing security exposure.
Additional information on the cleanup is available in the “Unused Computer Objects” section of our Security Remediation Guidance for IT Administrators article, found at https://services.pitt.edu.
This change should have little to no impact on faculty and staff. In rare cases, a user may attempt to log in with a device that has not connected to the Pitt domain in six months or more. If that happens, the device will be unable to connect, and you should call the Technology Help Desk at +1-412-624-HELP (4357) to have the entry re-enabled.
Separately, Microsoft will perform brief maintenance on Active Directory from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. that evening. This is unrelated to the cleanup and is not expected to affect users. Pitt Digital will be actively engaged with Microsoft throughout the maintenance window. In the unlikely event an issue arises, the system will be returned to its original configuration and updates will be posted here.
