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.
Standing local admin was our biggest unresolved risk. CapaOne removed it fleet-wide in a single afternoon.
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.
Grant admin privileges for minutes, not days — auto-revoke on expiry with no manual cleanup needed.
Elevate a specific executable, installer, command, or task — never the entire session.
Quiet, in-context prompts with configurable notifications and minimal disruption to the user's workflow.
Define who can elevate what, where, and under which constraints — per user, group, device, or application.
Fully customisable controls for high-risk tools and sensitive actions — allow/deny rules with evidence capture.
Tightly scoped emergency elevation for critical, time-sensitive situations — without handing out standing admin.
Who/what/when, endpoint, binary details, time, duration, and outcome — all exportable to CSV for audits and change boards.
Pre-approve apps by name or path, configure self-service prompts, and keep users moving without IT bottlenecks.
Already running Intune? Privilege Manager layers on top — your existing Intune setup stays intact while CapaOne handles the granular privilege controls Intune alone cannot provide.
See It LiveLocal admin rights on every device is the single biggest privilege misconfiguration in most Windows environments. Privilege Manager closes it — for good.
Users complete routine tasks with self-service, within policy — no helpdesk call needed.
Support can grant scoped elevation quickly without handing out full admin credentials.
Strong guardrails reduce misconfiguration and malware exposure from excess privilege.
No more waiting hours for simple installs — done safely in minutes, within policy.
Most teams remove standing local admin the same day they start.
Remove standing local admin from target groups and establish a clean privilege baseline across the fleet.
Set elevation policies for standard tasks — approved installers, printers, VPN clients, developer tools.
Roll out with short durations and strict guardrails. Review logs, tweak policies, confirm user experience.
Scale to departments with scheduled policy reviews, periodic access recertification, and exportable evidence.
Users trigger elevation for a specific executable. Policies decide whether to auto-approve or require confirmation. Admin privileges apply only to that scope and auto-expire — no manual cleanup.
Yes. Create deny rules for shells or unsigned installers and require explicit policy exceptions for controlled use — so dangerous tools can never be silently elevated.
Best practice is no standing admin. Use policies for routine tasks and break-glass elevation for rare exceptions. Almost all real-world scenarios can be handled without permanent admin.
User, endpoint, binary details (executable name, app path), time, duration, and outcome — all exportable to CSV for audits, change boards, and cyber insurance requirements.
Set a short duration on each policy rule. Elevation auto-revokes on expiry with no admin action required.
Yes. Target policies via Entra ID groups, respect existing group structure, and run alongside your Intune compliance and configuration profiles.
Policies can allow cached decisions for low-risk tasks with strict durations, and queue logs for sync when the endpoint is back online.
Yes. Support can authorise a scoped, time-bound elevation without exposing local admin accounts — keeping credentials off the wire.
Typically within the same day. Remove standing local admin privileges, apply standard policies to test endpoints, then scale to departments with measured guardrails and reporting.
Consolidate your endpoint privilege operations with CapaOne — standalone or with Intune.
