Local System Account

On the Connection tab, you can configure Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to authenticate to a managed SQL Server using a local system account and password. The local system account is a Windows user account on the server that is hosting the SQL database.

NOTE: In order to use this authentication type, you must add both a Windows asset and a SQL Server asset to Safeguard for Privileged Passwords.

Table 104: Local System Account authentication type properties
Property Description
Test Connection

Click this button to verify that Safeguard for Privileged Passwords can log in to this asset using the local system account credentials you have provided. For more information, see About Test Connection.

Use SSL Encryption

Select this option to enable Safeguard to encrypt communication with this asset. If you do not select this option for a MicrosoftSQL Server that is configured to force encryption, Test Connection will use untrusted encryption and succeed with valid credentials. For more information about how Safeguard database servers use SSL, see How do Safeguard for Privileged Passwords database servers use SSL.

Verify SSL Certificate

Use this option to enable or disable SSL Certificate verification on the asset. When enabled, Safeguard for Privileged Passwords compares the signing authority of the certificate presented by the asset to the certificates in the Trusted CA Certificates store every time Safeguard for Privileged Passwords connects to the asset. Trust must be established for Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to manage the asset. For Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to verify an SSL certificate, you must add the asset's signing authority certificate to the Trusted CA Certificates store. Only clear the Verify SSL Certificate option if you do not want to establish trust with the asset.

Instance/Service Name

For SQL Server platforms, specify the Instance name if you have configured multiple instances of a SQL Server on this asset. If you have configured a default (unnamed) instance of the SQL Server on the host, you need to provide the IP address and port number.

For Oracle platforms, use the TNSNAMES naming method to identify the target system in Oracle. Depending on how the Oracle environment is configured, the Instance (also called SID in Oracle) and/or the Service Name (ServiceName) can be used to identify the target database.

Port

Enter the port number to log in to the asset.

Connection Timeout

Enter how long to wait (in seconds) for both the connect and command timeout.

Default: 20 seconds

Password (local service account)

On the Connection tab, you can configure Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to authenticate to a managed system using a local service account and password.

NOTE: Some options are not available for all operating systems.

Table 105: Password authentication type properties
Property Description
Distinguished Name

For LDAP platforms, enter the fully qualified distinguished name (FQDN) for the service account.

For example: cn=dev-sa,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com

Service Account Distinguished Name

Browse to select the service account for Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to use for management tasks. When you add the asset, Safeguard for Privileged Passwords automatically adds the service account to Accounts. For more information, see About service accounts.

Required except for LDAP platforms, which use the Distinguished Name.

Password

Enter the service account password used to authenticate to this asset.

Limit: 255 character

Privilege Elevation Command

If required, enter a privilege elevation command (such as sudo). This is used as a prefix for commands that require privileged access on the system and to manage accounts on Unix-based systems; that is, to check and change SSH keys and to discover accounts.

Sudo commands follow.

  • AuthorizedKeyCommand
Specify a program to look up the user's public keys
  • cat
  • chmod
  • chown
  • chuser
  • cp
  • dscacheutil
  • dscl
  • echo
  • egrep
  • find
  • grep
  • host
  • ls
  • mkdir
  • modprpw (hpux only)
  • mv
  • psswd
  • pwdadm
  • rm
  • sed
  • sshd
  • ssh-keygen
  • tee
  • test
  • touch
  • usermod

When adding an asset, this command is used to perform Test Connection. For more information, see About Test Connection.

The privilege elevation command must run non-interactively, that is, without prompting for a password. For more information, see Preparing Unix-based systems.

The limit is 255 characters.

Privilege Level Password

Enter the Enable password to allow access to the Cisco configuration.

Auto Accept SSH Host Key

This check box is selected by default indicating that Safeguard for Privileged Passwords automatically accepts an SSH host key. This option is not available for all platforms.

Once the SSH host key is discovered, the SSH host key fingerprint is displayed.

When an asset requiring an SSH host key does not have one, Check Password will fail. For more information, see Connectivity failures.

Test Connection

Click this button to verify that Safeguard for Privileged Passwords can log in to this asset using the service account credentials you have provided. For more information, see About Test Connection.

Service Account Password Profile

Click Edit to add the profile or — Remove to delete the assigned profile. Available profiles are based on the partition selected on the General tab (asset discovery). To update the profile later, go to the service account and update the profile. For more information, see Properties (account).

Service Account SSH Key Profile

Click Edit to add the profile or — Remove to delete the assigned profile. Available profiles are based on the partition selected on the General tab (asset discovery). To update the profile later, go to the service account and update the profile. For more information, see Properties (account).

Use SSL Encryption

Select this option to enable Safeguard to encrypt communication with this asset. If you do not select this option for a MicrosoftSQL Server that is configured to force encryption, Test Connection will use untrusted encryption and succeed with valid credentials. For more information about how Safeguard database servers use SSL, see How do Safeguard for Privileged Passwords database servers use SSL

Verify SSL Certificate

Use this option to enable or disable SSL Certificate verification on the asset. When enabled, Safeguard for Privileged Passwords compares the signing authority of the certificate presented by the asset to the certificates in the Trusted CA Certificates store every time Safeguard for Privileged Passwords connects to the asset. Trust must be established for Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to manage the asset. For Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to verify an SSL certificate, you must add the asset's signing authority certificate to the Trusted CA Certificates store. Only clear the Verify SSL Certificate option if you do not want to establish trust with the asset.

As Privilege

Specify the Oracle privilege level to use when connecting with the selected Oracle service account, if required. The Oracle SYS account requires the privilege level SYSDBA or SYSOPER. For details, see the Oracle document, About Administrative Accounts and Privileges and SYSDBA and SYSOPER System Privileges.

Instance/Service Name

For SQL Server platforms, specify the Instance name if you have configured multiple instances of a SQL Server on this asset. If you have configured a default (unnamed) instance of the SQL Server on the host, you need to provide the IP address and port number.
