RPC for Active Directory
Active Directory Remote Password Changing (RPC) in Secret Server allows for the automated management of AD account passwords, ensuring they remain synchronized with Secret Server policies. This feature supports automatic password updates upon expiration or on a defined schedule, adhering to domain password policy requirements. To enable AD RPC, administrators must configure the appropriate permissions for the service account, ensuring it has the necessary rights to change passwords. Secret Server provides a dedicated Active Directory Account template preconfigured for this purpose, which can be customized as needed. Additionally, the platform supports advanced configurations such as using privileged accounts for password changes and integrating PowerShell scripts for more complex environments. This robust functionality ensures secure and efficient password management across Active Directory environments.
