Cobynsofts AD Password Extender

Are you tired of receiving distress calls from your Road Warriors and frequent business travelers who cannot log into the VPN? It's a common problem that arises when end-users forget to change their passwords before embarking on their stressful trips. In some cases, you might ask them for their password and set the same password. However, in other instances, you might set a new password. By doing so, the cached laptop password becomes distinct from their domain or VPN password, leading to confusion.

Unfortunately, these methods pose risks of account compromise, as others might have a chance to eavesdrop on the conversation. In some cases, you may even have to inform the user that they are out of luck until their return to the office.

Thankfully, Cobynsoft's AD Password Extender provides a solution to this problem. This Windows tool allows you to choose a user account and prolong the password expiration date by a specified number of days in the Group Policy. Extending the expiration date means that accounts do not get compromised via insecure communication channels while users are travelling and unable to log into the VPN or other Active Directory authenticated systems.

Overall, with Cobynsoft's AD Password Extender, you can rest easy with the knowledge that your end-users' accounts are protected, and their sensitive data remains secure.
