Table 215: Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 2.2: Features and enhancements
Feature/Enhancement Description

Additional platform support

Safeguard for Privileged Passwords now supports the management of assets on the following additional platforms:

  • FreeBSD
  • MongoDB
  • PostgreSQL
  • RACF - Mainframe LDAP
  • SAP HANA

Application to Application (A2A) integration

Using the Application to Application service, third-party applications can interact with Safeguard for Privileged Passwords in the following ways:

  • Credential retrieval: A third-party application can retrieve a credential from the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords vault in order to perform automated functions on the target asset. In addition, you can replace hard coded passwords in procedures, scripts, and other programs with programmatic calls.
  • Access request broker: A third-party application can initiate an access request on behalf of an authorized user so that the authorized user can be notified of the available request and log in to Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to retrieve a password or start a session.

Asset Administrator dashboard

The Account Automation tab on the Dashboard allows Asset and Directory administrators to view information regarding accounts that are failing different types of tasks, including:

  • Accounts where password check tasks failed.
  • Accounts where password change tasks failed.
  • Accounts where SSH key change tasks failed.
  • Accounts where suspend tasks failed.
  • Accounts where restore tasks failed.

Dynamic grouping and tagging

Dynamic grouping and tagging helps classify assets allowing Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to assign automatically provisioned systems and accounts to a policy.

Tags allow Asset Administrators to add additional metadata to accounts and assets to enrich the data on the object as it is added to Safeguard for Privileged Passwords. Tags can be dynamically added to assets and accounts based on tagging rules or they can be added manually.

Policy administrators can create rules based on tags or from attribute information that is on the account or asset (for example, name, platform, partition, network address, and so on) to define group membership.

Event subscription

As a Safeguard for Privileged Passwords user, you can now control the email notifications you receive. Using the Manage Email Notifications control in your My Account pane, you can remove the events for which you do not want to receive email notifications.

As a Safeguard for Privileged Passwords administrator, you can use the API to subscribe to the events for which you are interested in receiving notifications.

Audit log archive

Safeguard for Privileged Passwords allows you to define and schedule an audit log management task to rotate audit logs from the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords appliance and archive older audit logs to a designated archive server.

Site awareness and network segmentation

As an Appliance Administrator, you can define managed networks (network segments) for your organization so Safeguard for Privileged Passwords can more effectively manage assets and accounts, and service access requests. Managed network information is used for scheduling tasks, such as password change and account discovery, and for session management in a clustered environment to distribute the task load. That is, by using managed networks the load is distributed in such a way that there is minimal cluster traffic and appliances that are closest to the target asset are used to perform the task.

Attribute search The attribute search functionality in the user interface allows you to limit an object list based on the object attributes. For example, in the Accounts view, you can now filter the accounts list based on whether the specified attribute contains the search string entered.

Starling Join

The newest versions of One Identity's on-premises products offer a mandatory One Identity Hybrid Subscription, which helps you transition to a hybrid environment on your way to the cloud. The subscription enables you to join Safeguard for Privileged Passwords with the One Identity Starling software-as-a-service platform. This gives your organization immediate access to a number of cloud-delivered features and services, which expand the capabilities of Safeguard for Privileged Passwords. When new products and features become available to One Identity Starling, the One Identity Hybrid Subscription allows you to use these immediately for Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to add value to your subscription.

Starling Identity Analytics & Risk Intelligence integration

The Starling Identity Analytics & Risk Intelligence service collects and evaluates information from data sources, such as Safeguard for Privileged Passwords, to provide you with valuable insights into your users and entitlements. When integrated with Safeguard for Privileged Passwords, Starling Identity Analytics & Risk Intelligence allows you to identify Safeguard for Privileged Passwords users and entitlements that are classified as high risk and view the rules and details attributing to that classification.

What's new in version 2.3.0.7426

One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 2.3.0.7426 introduces the following new features and enhancements.

Table 216: Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 2.3: Features and enhancements
Feature/Enhancement Description

Synchronized passwords

As an Asset Administrator, you now have the ability to synchronize passwords so accounts can use the same password on the same or different assets.

What's new in version 2.4.0.7846

One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 2.4.0.7846 introduces the following new features and enhancements.

Custom platform (770747)

Asset Administrators now have the ability to add a custom platform for use when adding or updating an asset. A custom platform allows Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to connect to and manage password operations on platforms that are not supported by Safeguard for Privileged Passwords out of the box. You can upload a custom platform script file to add support for any system that you want to manage. In this release, only SSH-based custom platforms are supported; other protocols will be added in future releases. To access examples of custom scripts and view commands, visit:

Auditors and Partition Administrators have read only rights to custom platforms. However, Partition Administrators retain the ability to add or remove assets.

Authentication options (765396)

With appropriate administration credentials, you can change the primary and secondary identity and authentication providers for authentication to Safeguard for Privileged Passwords. The feature enables customers to integrate Safeguard for Privileged Passwords with their existing identity and authentication services. For example, a customer can use Radius for primary authentication and rely upon their own company policies for functions like 2FA.

Safeguard Sessions Appliance join (770739)

CAUTION: The SPS/SPP join feature in the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 2.4 release is intended for proof of concept and preview purposes only. This feature should not be used in production.

The Asset Administrator can now join a Safeguard Sessions Appliance with a standalone primary Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Appliance. Once joined, all sessions are recorded via the Safeguard Sessions Appliance and the embedded sessions module for Safeguard for Privileged Passwords is no longer available.

The user initiates the join by connecting to the Safeguard Sessions Appliance over SSH, selecting Join to SPP, and providing the requested information. After the join is complete, the user restarts the desktop client to complete the connection and update settings and entitlement policy details.

Sessions recorded prior to joining the Safeguard Sessions Appliances are available to play back from local storage and in accordance with the permissions of the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Appliance. Sessions that are archived are also available to play back.

Once a Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Appliance has been configured to use the Safeguard Sessions Appliance, it can only be reversed by a factory reset of the Safeguard Passwords Appliance or restoring a backup that was taken before the first join of Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS). Either method unjoins the Sessions Appliance and redeploys the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Appliance sessions module.

What's new in version 2.5.0.8356

One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 2.5.0.8356 introduces the following new features and enhancements.

Directory based user discovery (713614 and 761638)

When adding a new directory based user group, the Authorizer Administrator or the User Administrator now have the option to:

  • Configure primary and secondary authentication providers and
  • Set administrator permissions on the imported or updated Safeguard for Privileged Passwords users.

In addition, any managed directory accounts that exist in Safeguard for Privileged Passwords at the time of the import process (or during the background synchronization of the directory), can automatically be assigned to a Safeguard user as a linked account. That association will be dependent upon the value of an attribute from the directory (such as "managedObjects" or "directReports" in Active Directory or "seeAlso" in OpenLDAP 2.4).

Offline Workflow (782735)

To ensure password consistency and individual accountability for privileged accounts, when an appliance loses consensus in the cluster access requests are disabled. In the event of an extended network partition, the Appliance Administrator can manually place an appliance in Offline Workflow Mode to run access request workflow on that appliance in isolation from the rest of the cluster. When the network issues are resolved and connectivity is reestablished, the Appliance Administrator can manually resume online operations to merge audit logs, drop any in flight access requests, and return the appliance to full participation in the cluster.

It is recommended that no changes to cluster membership are made while an appliance is in Offline Workflow Mode. The Appliance Administrator must manually restore the online operations before adding other nodes to ensure the appliance can seamlessly reintegrate with the cluster.
