Works standalone Perfect with Intune

Privilege
Manager

Privilege Manager removes standing local admin rights and replaces them with time-bound, policy-driven elevation. Users get access only for the exact task they need, for a defined window — with every event logged and exportable for audits.
Use it standalone. Or layer it on top of your existing Microsoft setup.

What You Can Do

Privilege Manager removes standing local admin rights and replaces them with time-bound, auditable elevation. Users request (or receive) privileges only when needed, for the exact task or application, and only for a defined window of time—so work keeps moving while risk stays low. It integrates cleanly with your Intune setup and supports the principle of least privilege.

Eliminate permanent local admin privileges while keeping users productive.
Grant just-in-time elevation to users, apps, scripts, or commands—on a timer.
Pre-approve apps based on executable name, app path.
Enforce guardrails with allow/deny rules and evidence capture.
Audit everything with immutable logs and exportable reports for change boards and audits.

Key Capabilities

Time-Bound Elevation

Grant admin privileges for minutes, not days—auto-revoke on expiry.

Scope-by-Design

Elevate a specific executable, installer, command, or task—not the entire session.

Session Elevation

Quiet, in-context prompts with configurable notifications and minimal disruption.

Policy Engine

Define who can elevate what, where, and under which constraints.

Guardrails

Fully customizable controls for high-risk tools and sensitive actions.

Break-Glass Controls

Tightly scoped emergency elevation for critical, time-sensitive situations.

Logs & Evidence

Who/what/when, endpoint, changes, outcome status; export CSV for audits.

User Experience Controls

Define who can elevate what, where, and under which constraints.

How It Fits with Intune

Security & Compliance

Reduce the attack surface: remove persistent admin rights and stop lateral movement via local admin.
Prove control: show auditors standardized elevation workflows, logs, and short-lived access patterns.
Support the principle of least privilege and separation of duties across IT and support functions.
Align with NIS2/CIS practices: strong access governance, traceability, and rapid revocation.

Operational Benefits

Fewer tickets: users complete routine tasks with self-service, within policy.
Faster fixes: support can grant scoped elevation quickly without handing out full admin.
Lower risk, less rework: strong guardrails reduce misconfiguration and malware exposure.
Happier users: no more waiting hours for simple installs—done safely in minutes.

Goals You Can Achieve

Zero standing local admin privileges across managed devices.
Minutes-not-days elevation cycles with auto-approvals.
Consistent, auditable workflows that satisfy internal and external audits.
Reduced malware and misconfiguration incidents tied to excess privilege.

Typical Rollout Pattern

1

Baseline & Remove standing local admin from target groups.

2

Define Policiesfor standard tasks (e.g., approved installers, printers, VPN clients).

3

Pilot with short duration and strict guardrails; review logs and tweak policies.

4

Operationalize with reports, scheduled reviews of policies, and periodic access recertification.

Have More Questions?

Users trigger elevation for a specific executable. Policies decide whether to auto-approve or deny. Admin privileges apply only to that scope and auto-expire.

Yes. Create deny rules for shells or unsigned installers and require explicit policy exceptions for controlled use.

Best practice is no standing admin. Use policies for routine tasks and break-glass elevation for rare exceptions.

User, endpoint, binary details (executable name, app path), time, duration, and outcome—all exportable.

Set short duration auto-revoke.

Yes. Target policies via Entra ID groups, respect existing group structure, and run alongside your Intune compliance and configuration.

Policies can allow cached decisions for low-risk tasks with strict durations, and queue logs for sync when the endpoint is back online.

Yes. Supporters can authorize a scoped, time-bound elevation without exposing local admin accounts.

Typically within minutes as it’s a very simple configuration, executed in a phased approach: remove standing local admin privileges, apply standard policies to test endpoints, then scale to departments with measured guardrails and reporting.

Endpoint Patch Management for Audits: A Practical Guide for IT Teams

How European IT teams use CapaOne to automate patch deployment, track exceptions, and produce audit documentation without manual consolidation across tools. Auditors rarely fail organizations because patches were not installed. They fail organizations because the evidence is missing. Effective endpoint patch management is not just about deploying updates — it is about proving, at any point in time, what was patched, when it […]

NIS2 Audit Documentation: Can You Prove Your Endpoint Posture?

With the first NIS2 audit deadline on June 30, 2026, most IT teams are about to find out whether their security is real or just well-intentioned. According to a CyberSmart survey of 670 European business leaders from April 2026, only 16% of organisations consider themselves fully NIS2-compliant. The gap is not poor security. It is missing […]
