&lt;p&gt;Microsoft 365 sits at the center of how my organizations communicate and collaborate. I handle the account side of things - creating users with the right licenses, managing group memberships, making sure Outlook and Teams access actually lines up with what people need. I also tie everything back to Active Directory so identity stays consistent across both systems.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Active Directory Administration</title><link>https://madhusudanupadhyay.com.np/projects/active-directory-administration/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://madhusudanupadhyay.com.np/projects/active-directory-administration/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="the-work"&gt;The Work&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I manage user accounts and groups across Active Directory on Windows Server 2008 R2 and 2019. These are the central identity systems feeding access to both network resources and Microsoft services. When someone joins, I create their account and set up the right group memberships. When they change roles, their access shifts with them. When they leave, I make sure everything gets revoked cleanly - no ghost accounts, no leftover permissions.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>User Onboarding &amp; Offboarding</title><link>https://madhusudanupadhyay.com.np/projects/user-onboarding-offboarding/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://madhusudanupadhyay.com.np/projects/user-onboarding-offboarding/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="the-work"&gt;The Work&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When someone joins, they need an account, the right access, a configured device, and to actually understand how to use it all. I create Active Directory accounts, set up Microsoft 365 access and group memberships, assign hardware, and enroll devices in Intune. I follow the same checklist every time. No shortcuts, no skipped steps.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Microsoft 365 Administration: What I Actually Do Day to Day</title><link>https://madhusudanupadhyay.com.np/blog/microsoft-365-administration-day-to-day/</link><pubDate>Sun, 01 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://madhusudanupadhyay.com.np/blog/microsoft-365-administration-day-to-day/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Microsoft 365 shows up in almost every ticket queue I&amp;rsquo;ve worked. Here&amp;rsquo;s how I think about the admin side of it: not theory, just the work.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="accounts-and-licenses"&gt;Accounts and Licenses&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Before anything else works, the account has to be right.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
