About Deleting User Accounts

Iru Endpoint provides administrators the ability to delete macOS user accounts using Apple’s MDM framework. This allows you to remove user accounts from enrolled Mac computers remotely and securely.

How It Works

When you delete a user account through Iru Endpoint, the command is sent to the device using the MDM protocol. As long as the device is online, the account gets deleted near-instantly. You can monitor the progress of this command through the device’s activity section.
