BAccount expiration policy

Explanation

An Account Expiration Policy automatically disables an account on a predefined date, making it ideal for contractors who have known end dates. Since it is automated, it does not depend on the provisioning team being notified when a contractor leaves - the account simply expires as scheduled. An annual account review (A) only catches issues once a year, leaving accounts active too long. Account lockout (C) triggers after failed login attempts, not based on employment status. Account disablement (D) is a reactive manual action, still requiring notification, whereas expiration is proactive and automatic.
