Safeguard Privilege Manager for Windows 4.8 - Quick Start Guide

Configuring Self-Service Elevation

To enable users to request permissions to use privileged applications, use the Self-Service Elevation Request Settings Wizard. Whenever a user attempts to run an application which requires administrative permissions for which they do not have rights, they are asked if they would like to send a request to their administrator for permission to run it. To access the wizard from the Getting Started screen, select the Setup Tasks tab and then double-click the Self-Service Elevation Request Settings Wizard. Follow the prompts or see the Safeguard Privileged Manager for Windows Administration Guide for more information.

NOTE: In some cases, Self-Service Elevation and Blacklist rules can be configured for the same target application. In this case, Blacklisting takes precedence over Instant Elevation and prevents the application from starting. For more information about creating Blacklisting rules, see Using the Create Rule Wizard in the Safeguard Privileged Manager for Windows Administration Guide.

To filter out Application Discovery data

  1. Click Next to use the Filters tab to filter out Application Discovery data according to different application specific criteria.

  2. On the Filters tab, select the check box to enable application filters.

  3. Enter filter criteria in one or more of the available boxes (Executable path contains, Product name contains, Publisher name contains, and File description contains).

    NOTE: An application only needs to meet a single filter criteria to filter out its Application Discovery data. To enter multiple criteria in each filter field, use commas (,) as delimiters.

NOTE: The Safeguard Privileged Manager for Windows Client does not transmit any Application Discovery data for one or more applications that meet any of the existing filter criteria.

Configuring privileged application discovery

Use the Privileged Application Discovery Settings Wizard to collect information about the privileged applications used over your network during a specified time period. By default, once this feature is enabled, it is set to collect information for two weeks, but you can adjust the setting. To access the wizard from the Getting Started screen, select the Setup Tasks tab and then double-click the Privileged Application Discovery Settings Wizard. Follow the prompts or see the Safeguard Privileged Manager for Windows Administration Guide for more information.

Configuring approved privileged applications

Processing discovered privileged applications

Use the Privileged Application Discovery screen under the Discovery & Remediation tab to process the privileged applications that were reported by the client computers. If these applications are approved and need to continue even after the least-privileged environment is in place, use this screen to automatically create and assign Elevation rules to appropriate groups. If a discovered application is not approved for use in the least privileged environment, you can ignore these applications and they will no longer display. Follow the prompts or see the Safeguard Privileged Manager for Windows Administration Guide for more information.
