Active Directory Account Lockout Analyzer

Account lockouts are not just disruptions — they can signal credential misuse, password attacks, or policy misconfigurations. While Event ID 4740 flags the lockout, it doesn’t reveal the root cause, leaving you blind to suspicious activity and persistent risks. AdminDroid’s Account Lockout Analyzer closes this visibility gap by combining lockout causes and source details, helping you identify the root cause and reduce troubleshooting time.
