Streamable session recording playback with Safeguard Desktop Player started from the SPS UI

From SPS version 7.2, you can play back your session recordings with the Safeguard Desktop Player application started from the SPS UI. With this method, you do not have to start the Safeguard Desktop Player application outside SPS to start replaying your session recording. This method starts a streamable, on-demand playback. As a result, you do not have to wait for a potentially large file to completely download before you start replaying the recording.

NOTE: You can replay session recordings in your browser, or using the Safeguard Desktop Player application. Note that there are differences between these solutions.

For details on the Safeguard Desktop Player application, see Safeguard Desktop Player User Guide.

The following table details the differences between the solutions provided by the browser and the Safeguard Desktop Player application when replaying session recordings.

Caution:

From version 6.13.0, SPS does not support Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) anymore. SPS version 6.12.0 and previous versions continue to support IE11.

From SPS version 6.10, the Google WebM Video for Microsoft Internet Explorer plugin is not required for replaying audit trails in your browser. The supported browsers are:

  • Google Chrome

  • Firefox

  • Safari

  • Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) - supported until SPS version 6.12.0

For SPS version 6.9 and earlier versions, even though the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) web interface supports Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge in general, to replay audit trails, you need to use Internet Explorer 11, and install the Google WebM Video for Microsoft Internet Explorer plugin.

If you cannot install Internet Explorer 11 or another supported browser on your computer, use the the Safeguard Desktop Player application. For details, see "Replaying audit trails in your browser" in the Administration Guide and Safeguard Desktop Player User Guide.

NOTE: From SPS version 6.10 and onwards, you can play video files of audit trails both in central and in cluster environments. Previously, you could play the video files only on the Search Master node in a cluster environment. From SPS version 6.10 and onwards, you can play video files on Search Minion nodes as well.

Prerequisites

  • The Safeguard Desktop Player application is installed and properly configured.

    NOTE: Trying to open your session recording in Safeguard Desktop Player while the application is not installed or not properly configured opens a snackbar notification, taking you directly to the Installing Safeguard Desktop Player section in the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged SessionsSafeguard Desktop Player User Guide.

  • At least one recorded session is available on the Search page.

Viewing encrypted screenshots

This section provides information on how to view encrypted screenshots and on the private keys that are necessary to view them.

Prerequisites

To view encrypted screenshots in the Search interface, you have to upload the necessary private encryption keys to your audit keystore. Only RSA keys (in PEM-encoded X.509 certificates) can be uploaded to the audit keystore.

TIP: One Identity recommends using 2048-bit RSA keys (or stronger).

The private keys are stored locally, in your browser.

NOTE: If you clear your browser’s data, your audit keystore could be deleted. If your audit keystore is deleted, upload your private keys again.

To view encrypted screenshots

  1. On the Search page, select an encrypted audit trail.

  2. To display the details of a connection, click . This page is called the details view.

  3. To access the list of encrypted screenshots of the selected audit trail, click Events in the details view.

  4. Click the screenshot that you want to view.

  5. (Optional) Unlock your keystore.

    If you have private keys stored in your audit keystore, the Unlock keystore dialog is displayed.

    Figure 313: Unlock keystore — Enter your master password

    Enter your master password and click Unlock keystore.

    The keystore is unlocked and you can use your keys or you can add new keys.

  6. (Optional) If there is a missing private key, the Private keys missing dialog opens.

    Figure 314: Private keys missing dialog

    Click Upload private keys, which takes you to User menu > Audit keystore, where you can add the keys.

  7. (Optional) If necessary, add any missing certificates on Basic settings > Local services > Indexer service.

    Previously, the audit keystore was used to store certificates as well as private keys. From SPS version 6.10 and onwards, you must upload the certificates to Basic settings > Local services > Indexer service.

    For more information on how to add certificates, see Configuring the internal indexer.

Result

Once you add the necessary private keys to your audit keystore, you can view the encrypted screenshots in the Search interface.

Replaying encrypted audit trails in your browser

This section provides information on the necessary private keys and certificates for playing encrypted audit trails in your browser and on how to open a video file of an audit trail.

Prerequisites

To replay encrypted audit trails in your browser, you have to upload the necessary private keys to your audit keystore and the corresponding certificates to Basic settings > Local services > Indexer service. Depending on the encryption, decrypting the upstream part of an audit trail may require an additional set of certificates and keys.

Only RSA keys (in PEM-encoded X.509 certificates) can be uploaded to the private keystore.

TIP: One Identity recommends using 2048-bit RSA keys (or stronger).

NOTE: Certificates are used as a container and delivery mechanism. For encryption and decryption, only the keys are used.

Use every keypair or certificate only for one purpose. Do not reuse cryptographic keys or certificates (for example, do not use the certificate of the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) webserver to encrypt audit trails, or the same keypair for signing and encrypting data).

For more information, see Encrypting audit trails and Replaying audit trails in your browser.

NOTE: You can only upload certificates permanently. Uploading certificates temporarily is not supported anymore.

To replay encrypted audit trails in your browser

  1. On the Search page, select the audit trail you want to replay.
