A Temporary Access Pass (TAP) is a time-limited passcode that can be configured for single or multiple use. The Temporary Access Pass (TAP) allows the user to securely sign in to the Microsoft Cloud within a defined time period to set up additional authentication methods. These secure authentication methods include passwordless methods such as FIDO2 security keys or the Microsoft Authenticator App. The limited time period for access authorisations makes the Temporary Access Pass (TAP) an indispensable tool for security guidelines and compliance requirements.

Windows LAPS (Local Administrator Password Solution) provides centralized, simple and secure management of local administrator passwords in Microsoft Intune. Each device receives its own temporary administrator password. Windows LAPS automatically manages the administrator passwords in terms of expiration and rotation. Local administrator passwords are stored in either Azure Active Directory or local Active Directory.
Windows LAPS thus offers, for example, higher protection against pass-the-hash and lateral traversal attacks.
