Least Privilege Management Software for Windows
Trusted by
Are excessive user privileges putting your data at risk?
Local admin rights are still far too common, and they're still one of the top ways attackers gain a foothold. Whether users are installing unauthorized software, bypassing security policies, or clicking the wrong thing at the wrong time, unmanaged privilege creates avoidable risk.
Netwrix gives you a smarter way to lock down privilege, without locking out productivity.
Elevation without compromise
Allow users to install printers, run sanctioned installers, or change network settings — without ever becoming an admin.
SecureRun™
Block ransomware and unknownware automatically. Only trusted apps (based on file owner or policy) are allowed to run.
Granular privilege control
Create rules that elevate specific tasks, apps, file types, or commands — tailored to roles, departments, or scenarios.
Eliminate Local Admin Rights — Without Breaking Workflows
Remove standing admin rights
Downgrade users to standard securely — no need for IT tickets or remote sessions just to install a printer.
Define elevation policies
Pre-approve apps, scripts, installers, or file paths that can be elevated without admin rights.
Audit everything
Every elevated action is logged. Know who elevated what, when, and why — perfect for audits and incident reviews.
Gain Full Control Over Privilege Escalation
When least privilege works, users don’t even notice it. But behind the scenes, Netwrix gives you unmatched flexibility and enforcement power.


How it works
Netwrix Least Privilege Manager applies policy rules directly to the endpoint — whether users are domain-joined, hybrid, or remote.
