Which statement is true regarding user account activation in Universal Directory?

The statement that accounts in Staged, Suspended, or Deactivated states can be activated is true because these account statuses are specifically designed to allow for reactivation.

When an account is in a Staged state, it means the user account has been created and is pending activation by the user. Accounts in a Suspended state can be reactivated as the suspension is temporary, often due to multiple failed login attempts or administrative actions. Similarly, Deactivated accounts, which may have been disabled intentionally, can be restored or activated again as part of account management practices in Universal Directory.

This ability to reactivate accounts across these specific statuses supports user management flexibility and enables organizations to handle changes in user access needs effectively. In contrast, locked-out accounts typically require the password reset process to be completed first before they can be activated, and while bulk activation is a convenient feature, it does not apply universally across all account statuses, especially if those accounts are locked or compromised. Additionally, notifications regarding account status and management are not limited to secondary email addresses and can be sent to primary emails as well.
