A centralized admin platform for managing authentication, authorization, and account security.

Project Overview

Identity Manager is a full-featured ASP.NET Core MVC application designed to manage users, roles, claims, and authentication flows for enterprise-grade applications.

Built on ASP.NET Core Identity, the system gives administrators full control over user access while also supporting modern security practices such as account lockout policies and external login providers (e.g., Microsoft Accounts).

The platform includes user CRUD operations, granular permission management via claims, and an intuitive dashboard for viewing user status and security details—making it ideal for managing internal teams or multi-role applications.
