Windows LAPS (Local Administrator Password Solution) provides centralized, simple, and secure management of local administrator passwords through Microsoft Intune. Each device receives its own, time-limited local administrator password. Windows LAPS independently manages the administrator passwords in terms of expiration and rotation. The passwords are stored either in Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) or in the local Active Directory.
The centralized management of all local administrator passwords simplifies control and monitoring. The time-controlled rotation of passwords significantly reduces their exposure duration. In addition, access to the stored passwords is strictly controlled, which makes unauthorized access more difficult and overall increases the security of the network environment.
