About LogonExpert

“Security, security and security again” — this was our primary focus. We studied all the ways one could attack a system with automatic logon. We then made LogonExpert and all its data as protected as it can possibly be, while preserving simple configuration options and an intuitive interface.

Direct integration with WinLogon

LogonExpert directly integrates with WinLogon without using any intermediary software, the Windows registry, or any other insecure storage.

Data security

LogonExpert stores authentication data encrypted with the strong algorithm known as Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), currently used by the U.S. government.

Post-logon protection

LogonExpert can lock the workstation desktop immediately after the system is logged on in order to prevent unauthorized access to the computer.

User rights control

By default, LogonExpert can be run only under the administrator account. This safeguards logon data even if there are other users on the computer. However, if necessary you can allow automatic logon configuration to users without administrative privileges.

Scheduled automatic logon and scheduled logoff

LogonExpert provides you with powerful scheduling. You can set a simple delay before every logon, or plan a logon (and logoff) for any time in the future.

Bypass logon banners

Whatever might appear — an unexpected shutdown event or window, or an administrator’s pre-logon notice—LogonExpert bypasses any barriers which may appear in its way. Bypassing a standard Ctrl+Alt+Del pre-logon request is handled routinely.

Windows Vista, Server 2008 and Windows 7 support

Microsoft has included completely new logon technology in its latest operating systems. Enhanced security brings a new level of logon control. LogonExpert meets and complements all of Microsoft’s new requirements, working perfectly on modern Windows operating systems.

Safe mode support

Even loaded in safe mode, LogonExpert will work normally. You can allow or disallow this capability, as it is easily configurable.

Ease of autologon interruption

If your plans change and you do not want to logon automatically, you can easily interrupt automatic logon: just press a “Shift” key and automatic logon will be canceled. If you prefer not to allow users to interrupt automatic logon, you can disable this option.

While this product was developed primarily for servers, it is quite functional for home and office users. LogonExpert does not differentiate between a server or a personal computer.
