Account Discovery

Account Discovery jobs include the rules Safeguard for Privileged Passwords uses to perform account discovery against assets. When you add an Account Discovery job, you can identify whether or not to automatically manage found accounts, whether to discover services, and whether to automatically configure dependent systems.

The accounts in the scope of the discovery job may include accounts that were previously added (manually) to the Safeguard partition. For more information, see Adding an account.

To configure and schedule Account Discovery jobs, perform one of the following:

  • You can create or edit an Account Discovery job, then associate assets to the Account Discovery job via the Occurrences button.

    IMPORTANT: You must click Occurrences to associate assets to the Account Discovery job. If you do not associate the assets to the Account Discovery job, the accounts will not be found.

  • You can create or edit an asset and, in the process, assign or create an Account Discovery job. For more information, see Adding an asset (desktop client).
