The following describes how to create and replay an audit trail in your browser.
|
Caution:
You can replay audit trails 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. |
|
Caution:
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. |
To replay an audit trail in your browser
On the Search page, find the audit trail you want to replay.
Click to display the details of the connection.
Alternatively, in the table view, click .
Click to generate a video file from the audit trail you want to replay. Depending on the load of the indexer and the length and type of the audit trail, this can take several minutes.
When the video is available, changes to and . You can use the button if you want to remove the generated video. After you remove the video file, the button is available and you can use it to recreate the video file.
To replay the video, click .
The Player window opens.

TIP:
You can quickly zoom in or out by clicking anywhere in the Player window. |
The Player window has the following controls:
: Play, Pause
, : Jump to previous event, Jump to next event
: Adjust replay speed
: Time since the audit trail started / Length of the audit trail. Click on the time to show the date (timestamp) of the audit trail.
: List of keyboard events. Special characters like ENTER, F1, and so on are displayed as buttons. If the upstream traffic is encrypted, upload your permanent or temporary keys to the User menu > Private keystore to display the keyboard events. This will not be displayed if your upstream traffic is encrypted but not unlocked.
: Active mouse button
: Create a screenshot
: Show / hide events. Select the types of events to display. Depending on the protocol used and how the audit trail was processed, One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) can display keyboard events, commands, mouse events, and window titles. Commands and window titles are displayed as subtitles at the top of the screen. This will not be displayed if your upstream traffic is encrypted but not unlocked.
: Fullscreen mode
: Progress bar
: Shows the distribution of events. Blue - commands, green - keyboard events, yellow - mouse events, orange - window title. This will not be displayed if your upstream traffic is encrypted but not unlocked.
: Close the player, and return to the Connection details page.
To view screenshots generated for encrypted audit trails and replay encrypted audit trails in your browser, you have to upload the necessary certificates and corresponding private keys to your private keystore. 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.
|
NOTE:
Certificates are used as a container and delivery mechanism. For encryption and decryption, only the keys are used. |
One Identity recommends using 2048-bit RSA keys (or stronger).
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 on audit trail encryption, see Encrypting audit trails and for more information about replaying audit trails in your browser, see Replaying audit trails in your browser.
You can upload certificates permanently or temporarily. The temporary certificates are deleted when you log out of SPS.
The certificates and private keys in your keystore can be protected with a passphrase. To use the certificates and private keys in a passphrase-protected keystore for decrypting audit trails, you have to unlock the keystore first by providing the security passphrase. The keystore then remains unlocked for the duration of your session.
To replay encrypted audit trails in your browser
Click on User Menu > Private keystore.
Figure 234: User Menu > Private keystore — The private keystore
(Optional) Create a security passphrase, if you have not configured one yet.
In Security passphrase, click Change.
In the New: field, enter your new security passphrase. Repeat the same passphrase in the Confirm: field.
|
NOTE:
SPS accepts passwords that are not longer than 150 characters. The following special characters can be used: !"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^-`{|} |
Click Apply.
If you forgot your security passphrase, contact our Support Team.
Click to add a new certificate. A new empty row is added.
Figure 235: Adding certificates
Click the first (under Certificate) to upload the new certificate. A pop-up window with the header Changing certificate is displayed.
Figure 236: Uploading certificates
Click Choose File, select the file containing the certificate, and click Upload. Alternatively, you can also copy-paste the certificate into the Certificate field and click Set.
To upload the private key corresponding to the certificate, click the second icon (under Key). A pop-up window with the header Changing key is displayed.
Figure 237: Uploading the private key
Click Choose File, select the file containing the private key, provide the Password if the key is password-protected, and click Upload. Alternatively, you can also copy-paste the private key into the Key field, provide the Password there, and click Set.
To add more certificate-key pairs, click and repeat the steps above.
To finish uploading certificates and keys to your private keystore, click Apply.

NOTE:
Creating report subchapters from search queries is currently an experimental feature of One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS), therefore One Identity recommends that only administrators use this feature and only at their own risk. |
You can turn any search query or statistics into a subchapter to add to your reports. This is an easy and flexible way of creating reports to monitor traffic, track certain parameters, or get alerted about particular events. The Search interface allows you to:

The following describes how to create a search-based report subchapter from search results.
To create a search-based report subchapter from search results
Set the number of sessions to show in the report as required.
Select a Statistic presentation for your report, such as Pie chart, List, Bar chart. Select the field (the metadata) to create your statistics on.
When adding the subchapter you created, look for it under Search-based subchapters.
