This preliminary check determines where we need to begin and really only applies to enrollments where the LASA was the first user to log in and the user never received the SecureToken. As shown in the diagram below we can break it down into three (3) key logic checks which we will walk through and build out further down. The workflow I came up with to automate as much as possible is deceptively simple even if the components involved are not.

Rotate the LASA password either by Policy or LAPS after completion.

Create a new LASA with a standardized password to be used for initial setup/troubleshooting.

Remove the LASA from FileVault so it can be deleted without old credentials.

Temporarily make the user an admin just long enough to escrow the Bootstrap Token, then immediately demote them again (unless they were already an admin).

Escrowing the Bootstrap Token for MDM Command to do updates requires the SecureToken enabled user to be an admin.

macOS updates and upgrades requires Volume Owner permissions (and a Bootstrap/SecureToken).

Giving non-enabled users a SecureToken requires authentication from an account with a SecureToken.

Subsequent logged in users are not SecureToken enabled by default.

SecureToken enabled accounts require the old password to be passed before changing (meaning they can’t use the Local Account Payload in Jamf Pro).

The LASA was used for initial setup and thus have a SecureToken as the first interactive login.

Shared logins (especially admins that can unlock the disk) are not good.

Deployments for new and refreshed computers must be Zero Touch.

Workflow must work for both PreStage and User-Initiated Enrollments.

Must be able to push available updates with deferrals and deadlines (Like Windows Update Rings).The LASA password must be rotated regularly going forward.Existing Local Admin Service Account (LASA) is required.Always approach information you find outside (or inside for that matter) official documentation with skepticism and follow the golden rule: Never test in production. As the name suggests, these accounts are based on experiences I’ve had in my own lab.

Example scripts provided involve passwords in clear text for the sake of the demonstration, but can be salted for added security.ĭisclaimer: This blog is not intended to be advice on how to manage your environment. As always, this post demonstrates a proof of concept and should always be paired with purpose built solutions that align with best practices for your industry.

Are you ready for this one? It’s a doozy of an information dump as it involves a perfect storm of asks from a customer which made me really think about the flow of SecureToken and how it impacts common practices I often see in the industry.
