Enabling Microsoft “Cloud enabled LAPS” (Local Admin Password Solution)

LAPS – Local Admin Password Solution, has for a long time been one of those great tools to have in the toolbox when it comes to securing your devices from lateral movement from a potential attacker. And Microsoft LAPS have been around for quite some time already.

This tool was orginally available for deployment to server/desktop devices connected to a traditional domain (on-prem) setup.

This changed as of April 2023, and Microsoft have now introduced Microsoft LAPS (Preview) with support for configuration with Intune, and saving the passwords to Azure AD, giving us – once again – a native LAPS solution to handle the local admin account.

Microsoft Teams unable to send and receive calls after update to 1.5.x

Users are currently experiencing outage to expected functions inside Microsoft Teams. Vital functions inside the apps like the ability to do calls, video, meetings etc, are broken for a random group of users across a multitude of user groups.
Around where I am based the discussion started to show itself at the end of january. Troubleshoothing has been ongoing since then, with limited results to an acualt fix.
The temporary fix have been around rolling back to version 1.4 for users that have experienced the issues. But, as Teams gets updated automatically, this is very temporary.
There has also not been very clear as to why only some users have been affected.
During the last week or so, this has become more clear.
