-> The remote collection of local administrators group members from endpoints using SAM-R queries in Microsoft Defender for Identity will be disabled by mid-May 2025. This data is currently used to build potential lateral movement path maps, which will no longer be updated after this change. The change will occur automatically by the specified date, and no administrative action is required.

 Microsoft Defender for Identity mapping for [potential lateral movement paths](/defender-for-identity/understand-lateral-movement-paths) relies on queries that identify local admins on specific machines. These queries are performed with the SAM-R protocol, using the Defender for Identity [Directory Service account](directory-service-accounts.md) you configured.
