A Fresh Look for Windows LAPS!Solved

We have completely transformed how you manage Windows LAPS in Hexnode! To deliver enhanced flexibility, precision management, and automated credential protection across all your endpoints, we have revamped our formerly unified Local Administrator Password Solution (LAPS) by splitting it into two distinct tiers: Basic and Advanced.

What’s Included?

1. Basic LAPS

Offers a security policy that provisions and safeguards a primary local admin account using standardized defaults. Credentials rotate on an automated schedule with zero manual effort required.

2. Advanced LAPS

Available as an add-on, Advanced LAPS equips IT admins with tailored credential management through four core policy areas:

• Existing Admin Accounts: Identify and rotate credentials for pre-existing local administrator accounts across your devices.
• Managed Admin Accounts: Provision, oversee, and dynamically generate fresh local administrator accounts per endpoint.
• Password Rotation Rules: Specify customized rotation cycles, expanded length boundaries, password history logging, and character complexity parameters.
• Password Access Controls: Enforce post-access password rotation, adjust viewing delays, and limit admin account exposure with automated inactivity lockouts.
3. Plan Tiering & Availability
• Basic LAPS: Included in the Ultra pricing plan at no extra cost.
• Advanced LAPS: Available as an add-on to unlock full functionality for complete environment control.
