How to detect and troubleshoot lockouts quickly

Account lockouts are problematic for two reasons:

  • They happen silently, so detection is difficult. As an admin, you might not know that a lockout has occurred until a user calls.
  • They happen due to a bevy of different reasons, from a program using cached credentials to a user logging on to multiple devices, so troubleshooting is hard.

Imagine a scenario where an account that a business-critical app is running on gets locked out, and the app stops. Just a few minutes of downtime could have serious repercussions.

To detect and troubleshoot lockouts using native tools, such as LockoutStatus.exe or PowerShell, you have to wade through several interfaces, requiring expertise and time, of which you do not have much.

With ADAudit Plus, you can detect and troubleshoot lockouts in just a few clicks. Have an expert give you a free, one-on-one demonstration of this feature.
