“Every single Windows device has a built-in local administrator account. It’s required, can’t be deleted, and, given its high privileges, has full access to the device. This local admin account is protected by its account password, which means that enterprises have no choice but to make sure the password is continuously secured and protected to avoid vulnerability attacks and security breaches. Many customers use the stand-alone, on-premises product called Windows Local Admin Password Solution (LAPS) for password management. Although widely adopted, the LAPS solution didn’t support local admin password management in the cloud, until now.
Intune is excited to announce the ability to manage and support Windows LAPS, bringing Microsoft’s admin password management solution to the cloud.” – By Intune Support Team
