Business Requirements- LAPS

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.

There are the following business requirements for the solution:

  • Solution is required to be resistant against tampering with by user of the computer it is implemented on, even if the user of the computer is member of local Administrators group
  • Solution must be centrally manageable. This includes:
    • Ability to know the password for certain computer without the need to directly touch it, either locally, or remotely
    • Ability to install, update and uninstall the solution in unattended way and on many computers at the same time
  • Solution must support built-in or custom (other than built-in) local administrator account
  • Solution must be able to handle the scenario when built-in Administrator account is renamed, without the knowledge of the new name
  • Solution must be able to correctly handle the situation when computer is disconnected from corporate network, i.e. not to change the password when it is not possible to report it to the password repository
  • Solution must support OS Windows Vista and above and Windows Server 2003 and above
  • Solution must support x86 and amd64 hardware platforms

So, that’s all in this blog. I will meet you soon with some other stuff. Have a nice day !!!
