What are the features of LAPS?
Hello All,
Hope this post finds you in good health and spirit.
What are the features of LAPS ?
This post is regarding what are the features of LAPS- Local Administrator Password Solution.
Microsoft’s LAPS is a useful tool for automatically managing Windows computer local Administrator passwords. LAPS stores the password for each computer’s local administrator account in Active Directory, secured in a confidential attribute in the computer’s corresponding Active Directory object.
LAPS helps to reduce the workload and help local administrator or desktop team to manage local administrator password in active directory for a number of machines.
LAPS includes the following features:
• Security that provides the ability to:
• Randomly generate passwords that are automatically changed on managed machines.
• Effectively mitigate PTH attacks that rely on identical local account passwords.
• Enforced password protection during transport via encryption using the Kerberos version 5 protocol.
• Use access control lists (ACLs) to protect passwords in Active Directory and easily implement a detailed security model.
• Manageability that provides the ability to:
• Configure password parameters, including age, complexity, and length.
• Force password reset on a per-machine basis.
• Use a security model that is integrated with ACLs in Active Directory.
• Use any Active Directory management tool of choice; custom tools, such as Windows PowerShell, are provided.
• Protect against computer account deletion.
• Easily implement the solution with a minimal footprint.
So, that’s all in this blog. I will meet you soon with some other stuff. Have a nice day !!!
