What is Specops Password Notification?
Specops Password Notification helps prevent user lockouts due to expired passwords and loss of connectivity for remote workers. This will in turn reduce helpdesk time. Users can be reminded to change their password before it expires. To send notifications to users affected by a configured GPO, the tool compares the pwdLastSet attribute with the maximum password age in the default domain policy.
Password expiration notification emails
By reminding users of expiring passwords, you reduce the burden on your service desk. The less calls your overworked IT staff has to make when a user changes their password before it expires, the better.
Send reminder emails to remote users
Off-network Windows users don’t see on-screen password expiration reminders.
When their passwords expire, local cached credentials may become unsynchronised with Active Directory.
The password expiration notification email tool lets IT admins send reminders to all users, even off VPN—no PowerShell needed.
Customise email notifications
Password expiry emails are fully customisable, allowing you to set when and how often they are sent.
Customise email content, sender address, and priority to highlight urgency as the expiration date nears.
Need time-specific notifications for users in different time zones? Password Notification supports easy configuration through Group Policy.
Reduce the helpdesk burden
Expired passwords can cause remote users to face login issues or account lockouts, disrupting productivity and straining your helpdesk.
Verifying remote users securely is often challenging, increasing the risk of social engineering attacks.
Prevent these issues by ensuring off-network users receive timely password change reminders before expiration..
