Local admin rights required in an AD-HOC way

Hi All,  Currently I’m going through the EPM install / onboard process and was wondering if there is a way to give users local admin rights to install applications on the fly. Some installers just have so many commands to whitelist that this isn’t feasible during a 1 time install. I was hoping for like a “just in time” setup to raise full admin however, the on-prem version doesn’t include JIT setup only the cloud does. How have others accomplish this without the need to whitelist every individual command line?

Password Safe API linking managed account to Managed System

We are looking to create a script that will use the Password Safe API calls to link a managed account to a managed system.  Not finding many examples on this.  Trying to follow the API doc’s but it is not clear in those which API calls to use.  Wondering if someone has does this already and willing to share some information how they did it?  Can easily get the list of managed systems, but not sure which call is the correct to link the managed account

Possibility to extend active session

Idea is to have an option to extend already submitted active session up to the default time limit. Currently there's no such option and the only way is to terminate current session and start a new one.https://beyondtrust-public.ideas.aha.io/ideas/T2PSM-I-1817Do you have similar situation by any chance? You can share your experience or vote for an idea if you find it useful.Cheers,Thanks & Regards,Sathya

MFA support for shared managed accounts

We currently use shared Role Identities as managed accounts to reduce the number of Admin accounts and as a way to enforce RBAC. As those accounts are not owned by specific users, they cannot be registered for MFA by individual users, and therefore the MFA requirement had to be disabled on the managed assets for the Role Identities, which is less secure (in case a Role ID is compromised) and against our policies.We would very much like to see a feature added to Password Safe allowing it to respond to 3rd party MFA challenges automatically, when establishing privileged sessions with the shared Role Identities.https://beyondtrust-public.ideas.aha.io/ideas/T2PSM-I-1808 Do you have similar situation by any chance? You can share your experience or vote for an idea if you find it useful.Cheers,Thanks & Regards,Sathya

PM Cloud Webhook for Teams

HI, I would like to configure a webhook with Microsoft Teams to be able to receive a notification when a JIT approval is arriving in PM Cloud.Indeed, at this time, no notification for these events is not valuable. I try to re use the Identity Insight documentation about Teams Webhook but it doesn’t work and I don’t receive anything.Do you have info about the Content Type and authorization fields ?

AD CS misconfigurations that can lead to domain admin

Abuse of Active Directory Certificate Services has been on the rise since 2021, with a growing number of techniques to abuse misconfigured template or vulnerable services. These are fairly common in enterprise environments and can provide attackers with a path to easily authenticate as a domain administrator from any standard domain account.I can highly recommend the posts by Raul Carmona and colleagues on ADCS attack paths:https://www.beyondtrust.com/blog/entry/esc1-attacks https://www.beyondtrust.com/blog/entry/esc4-attacksWe also have a webinar on the topic which includes an explanation and a demo of how these attacks work:https://www.beyondtrust.com/webinars/iam-leaders-and-ad-admins-are-ad-cs-misconfigurations-and-similar-issues-giving-every-user-a-path-to-your-domain-adminA few questions for discussion:Is this an area that you are actively looking into? Do you need assistance or education in these areas to help you understand them better? Have you uncovered these vulnerabilities
