Launching the SSH client

Once an SSH session request becomes available, the requester can launch the SSH client to start the session. This is applicable for both the web client and desktop client user interfaces.

To launch the SSH client to begin your session then close your session

  1. If the User Supplied option is selected in the policy, you will be prompted to enter your user credentials. After entering the requested credentials, click Apply. This will retrieve the information (for example, Hostname Connection String) required to launch the SSH client.

  2. Click the Launch/Start SSH Session button associated with the asset name.

    NOTE: The Launch/Start SSH Session options are available only if enabled by user preferences.

    • In the web client, a session will launch if you have an application registered (ssh:// for SSH protocol).

    • In the desktop client, clicking Launch displays the PuTTY Configuration dialog. The required information is populated, click Open to launch the SSH client. If the required information is not populated in the PuTTY Configuration dialog, use the following buttons to copy and paste the information into the dialog:

      • Use the buttons to the right of the Hostname Connection String to perform the following tasks:

        • View: To view the hostname connection string.

        • Copy: To copy the value to your copy buffer, which can then be pasted into the Hostname field of the PuTTY Configuration dialog.

        • Help: To copy the value into the Hostname field of the PuTTY Configuration dialog.

      • Use the buttons to the right of the Password or SSH Key to perform the following tasks.

        • View: To view the password or SSH key.

        • Copy: To copy the password or SSH key to your copy buffer, which can then be pasted into the Password or SSH Key field of the PuTTY Configuration dialog.

        • Help: To copy the value into the Password or SSH Key field of the PuTTY Configuration dialog.

        • NOTE: The Password or SSH Key field only appears if the Include password release with session requests option (Access Config tab) is selected in the entitlement's access request policy.

  3. In the SSH client, run the commands or programs on the target host.

    If there is no activity in an open session for about 10 minutes, the session will be closed. However, as long as the request is in an Available state, you can launch the session again to resume your tasks.

  4. Once you are completed, log out of the target host and select Check in to complete the session request process.

    This makes the session request available to reviewers. If the Record Sessions option is enabled in the policy, the reviewer can play back the recording as part of the review process. In addition, if the Enable Command Detection option is selected in the policy, the reviewer can view a list of the commands and programs run during the session.

Launching an RDP session

Once an RDP session request becomes available, the requester can launch the remote desktop connection to start the session. This is applicable for both the web client and desktop client user interfaces.

To launch a remote desktop connection

  1. If the User Supplied option is selected in the policy, you will be prompted to enter your user credentials. After entering the requested credentials, click Apply. This will retrieve the information (for example, Username Connection String) required to launch the remote desktop session.

  2. Depending on your interface:

    • (web client) In the web client:

      NOTE: The Start RDP Session option is available only if enabled by user preferences.

      • If you have an application registered (rdp:// for RDP sessions), you can click the Start RDP Session button associated with the asset name then click Connect. See KB 313918 for details on application registration. A password must be entered and we recommend sg. A blank password will cause the session to fail.
      • If you do not have an application registered, download the RDP launch file instead of using the Start RDP Session button. A password must be entered and we recommend sg. A blank password will cause the session to fail.
    • (desktop client) Click the Launch button to the right of the asset name. Clicking this button displays the Remote Desktop Connection dialog. Click Connect to launch the remote desktop session.

    NOTE: If the required information is not populated in the Remote Desktop Connection dialog, use the following buttons to copy and paste the information into the dialog:

    1. Use the buttons to the right of the Username Connection String to perform the following tasks:

      • View: To view the username connection string.
      • Copy: To copy the value to your copy buffer, which can then be pasted into the Username field of the Remote Desktop Connection dialog.
      • Help: To copy the value into the Username field of the Remote Desktop Connection dialog.

    2. Use the buttons to the right of the Password or SSH Key to perform the following tasks:

      • View: To view the password or SSH key.
      • Copy: To copy the password or SSH key to your copy buffer, which can then be pasted into the Password or SSH Key field of the Remote Desktop Connection dialog.

      • Help: To copy the value into the Password or SSH Key field of the Remote Desktop Connection dialog.

      NOTE: The Password or SSH Key field only appears if the Include password or SSH key release with session requests option (Access Config tab) is selected in the entitlement's access request policy. For more information, see Access Config tab (create access request policy desktop client).

Begin your RDP session and close the session

  1. In the remote desktop session, run the commands or programs on the target host.
    If there is no activity in an open session for about 10 minutes, the session will be closed. However, as long as the request is in an Available state, you can launch the session again to resume your tasks.

  2. Once you are completed, log out of the target host and select Check in to complete the session request process.

    This makes the session request available to reviewers. If the Record Sessions option is enabled in the policy, the reviewer can play back the recording as part of the review process. In addition, if the Enable Window Title Detection option is selected in the policy, the reviewer can view a list of the windows opened on the desktop during the session.

Configuring and launching a Remote Desktop Application session

In order to launch a remote desktop application session request, some additional configuration is required.

To configure and launch a remote desktop application

  1. Install and configure Safeguard for Privileged Sessions's RemoteApp launcher available starting with 6.12. For more information, see One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions Administration Guide.

  2. Publish the OISGRemoteAppLauncher application following Microsoft's instructions. All remote applications that will be launched using SPP/SPS need to be configured to launch with the OISGRemoteAppLauncher and include a command line which references the intended remote application. Take note of the RemoteApp Program Name and Alias since they will be needed when configuring the access request policy.

  3. On Asset Management | Assets, you need the following assets (for more information, see Adding an asset (web client)):

    1. Windows Server asset: This asset will be used to connect with a Windows Application Server.

    2. Other/Other Managed asset: This asset (of either platform type) is used to connect with the remote application. It requires the following settings:

      • Network Address: None

      • Authentication Type: None

      • An account from the remote application added to the Accounts tab.

  4. On Security Policy Management | Entitlements, you will need an entitlement containing a Remote Desktop Application access request policy. For more information, see Creating an access request policy (web client).

  5. Within Safeguard for Privileged Sessions, a channel policy needs to be modified or created to include the following attributes. This channel policy will also need to be referenced from an RDP connection policy. For more information, see One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions Administration Guide.

    1. In RDP Control | Connections, set the Channel policy to applications.

    2. In RDP Control | Channel Policies, create the following:

      1. Dynamic virtual channel: No configured settings.

      2. Custom: Add the following to Permitted channels:

        • rail

        • rail_ri

        • rail_wi

Once a remote desktop application session request becomes available, the requester can launch the remote desktop connection to start the session.

To launch a remote desktop application connection

In the web client: Click the Start RDP Session button associated with the asset.

NOTE: The Start RDP Session option is available only if enabled by user preferences and if you have installed Session Client Application Launch Uri System (for more information, see SCALUS).

NOTE: A black window may appear on the screen as the launcher loads the remote desktop application session.

Reviewing a session request

The Security Policy Administrator can configure an access request policy to require a review of completed session requests for assets or accounts in the scope of the policy.

NOTE: You can configure Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to notify you of an access request that requires your review. For more information, see Configuring alerts.
