unlike local admin rights, this feature does not add the user to the local admin group instead, when an end user runs an application that requires local admin privileges, the system detects the request and prompts the user to specify how long they need to run the application with admin rights the user's request is sent to kron pam , and if approved by their manager, the agent grants local admin privileges for that specific application the next time the user runs it once the specified duration expires, the admin rights are revoked if the user needs to run the application again, they must request approval from their manager once more for example, when the cmd application is run as an administrator, the agent detects the request and asks the user to specify the time frame for admin access the process is similar to the managerial approval process the status of this approval can also be monitored via our tray application
