The Local Administrator Password Solution (LAPS) is one the most used Active Directory extensions by Enterprise administrators. Microsoft acknowledged that and made it Windows native. Not only that, but it has some great new features like backing up passwords to Azure Active Directory, encrypting passwords, storing password history, automatic password reset when used, and many more. In this session I introduce you to LAPS, demonstrate it, including its new features, and compare it to the LAPS you already know and love. As always, I have an "ask anything" section in the Q&A part of the session.
