Archive/Cleanup policy

Archiving transfers data from SPS to an external storage solution, cleanup removes (deletes) old files. Archived data can be accessed and searched, but cannot be restored (moved back) to the SPS appliance. Only those closed audit-trail files are archived where the retention time has already elapsed. To list the available Archive policies, use the following command.

curl --cookie cookies https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/policies/archive_cleanup_policies/

The following sections detail the properties of Archive/Cleanup policy objects.

URL
GET https:<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/policies/archive_cleanup_policies/<object-id>
Cookies
Cookie name Description Required Values
session_id Contains the authentication token of the user Required

The value of the session ID cookie received from the REST server in the authentication response, for example, a1f71d030e657634730b9e887cb59a5e56162860. For details on authentication, see Authenticate to the SPS REST API.

Note that this session ID refers to the connection between the REST client and the SPS REST API. It is not related to the sessions that SPS records (and which also have a session ID, but in a different format).
Sample request

The following command lists the properties of a specific Archive/Cleanup policy object.

curl --cookie cookies -https:<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/policies/archive_cleanu_policies/<object-id>
Response

Element Type Description
name string Top level element, the name of the object. This name is also displayed on the SPS web interface. It cannot contain whitespace.
include_node_id_in_path boolean Include the Cluster Node ID in the path. Recommended to set to True if the SPS instance is a node in a cluster. This ensures that the ID of the node is included in the path of the relevant directory, which is required to prevent cluster nodes from archiving data to the same location, and so overwriting each other's data and resulting in data loss.
notification_event Top level element
type string (all | errors-only | none)
  • all: Sends notification emails on all archive-related events.
  • errors-only: Sends notification emails only on archive-related errors.
  • none: Sends no archive-related notification emails.
send_filelist boolean

This is meaningful only if notification_event is set to all.

True if the list of files are included in the notification e-mail.

file_count_limit integer

This is meaningful only if notification_event is set to all and send_filelist is set to True.

The maximum number of files that are included in the notification e-mail.

target Top level element Defines the address of the archive server, which protocol to use to access it, and other parameters. SPS can be configured to use the SMB/CIFS, and NFS protocols to access the archive server.
type string (smb | nfs | none)
  • smb: Move data to a remote server using SMB/CIFS
  • nfs: Move data to a remote server using NFS
  • none: Cleanup data. Data is deleted from SPS forever and cannot be recovered.
server Top level element
domain string

Only if type is set to smb.

The domain name of the target server

protocol_version string

Only if type is set to smb.

The SMB protocol to use when SPS connects to the server. Servers are usually backwards compatible with earlier protocol versions (for example, a server that supports version 2.1 supports versions 2.0 and 1.0 as well).

share string

Only if type is set to smb.

The name and directory path of the share in the following format:

share_name/path/to/directory
authentication Top level element

Only if type is set to smb.

path string The path to the archive directory on the target server
start_times list of strings The time when the archive process starts in H:MM or HH:MM format.

SPS organizes the audit trails into directories based on the date or the protocol. The subdirectories are created directly into the archive directory. The following subdirectory structures are possible:

  • PROTOCOL/CONNECTION/ARCHIVEDATE/

  • ARCHIVEDATE/CONNECTION/PROTOCOL/

  • CONNECTIONDATE/PROTOCOL/CONNECTION/

  • ARCHIVEDATE/

  • CONNECTIONDATE/

Audit policies

The list of audit policies. An audit policy contains settings for encrypting, timestamping, and signing audit trails. To enable auditing for a connection, select an audit policy when configuring connections, and enable auditing for the appropriate protocol channels in the connection's channel policy.

 NOTE:

The default audit policy is pre-selected when creating connection policies. Modify that audit policy with care.

URL
GET https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/policies/audit_policies

Encrypting certificates

Encrypting certificates must not contain any metadata. SPS uses only the key part of the certificate, no other data (expiry, etc.) are relevant for encryption.

To use a certificate with the SPS API, remove all metadata, and substitute line breaks with \n.

The following is an example certificate, as used on the SPS web interface:

Real-time content monitoring with Content Policies

You can monitor the traffic of certain connections in real time, and execute various actions if a certain pattern (for example, a particular command or text) appears in the command line or on the screen, or if a window with a particular title appears in a graphical protocol. Since content-monitoring is performed real-time, One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) can prevent harmful commands from being executed on your servers. SPS can also detect numbers that might be credit card numbers. The patterns to find can be defined as regular expressions. In case of ICA, RDP, and VNC connections, SPS can detect window title content.

The following actions can be performed:

  • Log the event in the system logs.

  • Immediately terminate the connection.

  • Send an e-mail or SNMP alerts about the event.

  • Store the event in the connection database of SPS.

SPS currently supports content monitoring in SSH session-shell connections, Telnet connections, RDP and Citrix ICA Drawing channels, and in VNC connections.

 NOTE:

Command, credit card and window detection algorithms use heuristics. In certain (rare) situations, they might not match the configured content. In such cases, contact our Support Team to help analyze the problem.

Real-time content monitoring in graphical protocols is not supported for Arabic and CJK languages.

To list the available Content policies, use the following command.

curl --cookie cookies https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/policies/content_policies

The following sections detail the properties of Content policy objects.

URL
GET https:<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/policies/content_policies/<object-id>
Cookies
Cookie name Description Required Values
session_id Contains the authentication token of the user Required

The value of the session ID cookie received from the REST server in the authentication response, for example, a1f71d030e657634730b9e887cb59a5e56162860. For details on authentication, see Authenticate to the SPS REST API.

Note that this session ID refers to the connection between the REST client and the SPS REST API. It is not related to the sessions that SPS records (and which also have a session ID, but in a different format).
Sample request

The following command lists the properties of a specific Content policy object.

        },
        "gateway_groups": [],
        "remote_groups": []
      }
    ]
  }
}
Element Type Description
name string Top level element, the name of the object. This name is also displayed on the SPS web interface. It cannot contain whitespace.
rules JSON object Top level element, contains the configuration properties of the object.
actions JSON object The list of actions to perform when the Content policy matches the analyzed traffic. All actions are boolean values (true or false)
event JSON object Specifies the event that triggers an action.
gateway_groups list

To apply the Content policy only for users belonging to specific groups, list those groups in the gateway_groups or remote_groups fields. If the gateway_groups or remote_groups field is set, the content policy is applied only to connections of these usergroups.

For example:

"gateway_groups": ["group1", "group2"],
remote_groups list

To apply the Content policy only for users belonging to specific groups, list those groups in the gateway_groups or remote_groups fields. If the gateway_groups or remote_groups field is set, the content policy is applied only to connections of these usergroups.

For example:

"remote_groups": ["group1", "group3"],
Element Type Description
actions JSON object The list of actions to perform when the Content policy matches the analyzed traffic. All actions are boolean values (true or false)
log boolean

Log the event in the system logs. Possible values: true or false

terminate boolean

Immediately terminate the connection. Possible values: true or false

notify boolean

Send an e-mail or SNMP alerts about the event. Possible values: true or false

store_in_connection_database boolean

Store the event in the connection database of SPS. Possible values: true or false
Element Type Description
event JSON object Specifies the event that triggers an action.
ignore list

A list of strings or regular expressions. SPS will perform an action if the match expression is found in the connection, unless it is listed in the ignore list. For example:

"ignore": [
"mmc.exe",
"cmd.exe"
                            
  • Use Perl Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE).
  • The following characters must be escaped using a backslash character: '(single-quote). For example, instead of .*' use .*\'
  • SPS uses substring search to find the expression in the content. That is, SPS finds the expression even if there is more content before or after the matching part. For example, the conf pattern will match the following texts: conf, configure, reconfigure, arcconf, and so on.
  • Using complicated regular expressions or using many regular expressions will affect the performance of SPS.
  • If the multiple expressions are set, SPS processes them one after the other, and stops processing the content if the first match is found, even if other expressions would also match the content. Therefore, when using multiple expressions, start with the most specific one, and add general expressions afterward.
match list

A list of strings or regular expressions. SPS will perform an action if the match expression is found in the connection, unless it is listed in the ignore list. For example:

"match": [
"mmc.exe",
"cmd.exe"
                            
  • Use Perl Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE).
  • The following characters must be escaped using a backslash character: '(single-quote). For example, instead of .*' use .*\'
  • SPS uses substring search to find the expression in the content. That is, SPS finds the expression even if there is more content before or after the matching part. For example, the conf pattern will match the following texts: conf, configure, reconfigure, arcconf, and so on.

  • If the multiple expressions are set, SPS processes them one after the other, and stops processing the content if the first match is found, even if other expressions would also match the content. Therefore, when using multiple expressions, start with the most specific one, and add general expressions afterward.
selection string

The type of event that you want to monitor.

  • command: The commands executed in the session-shell channel of SSH connections, or in Telnet connections.

    		 Caution:

    During indexing, if a separate certificate is used to encrypt the upstream traffic, command detection works only if the upstream key is accessible on the machine running the indexer.

  • screen_content: Every text that appears on the screen. For example, every text that is displayed in the terminal of SSH or Telnet connections. This includes the executed commands as well, unless echoing is turned off for the terminal.

  • creditcard: Process every text that appears on the screen and attempt to detect credit card numbers in SSH or Telnet connections. SPS performs an action if the number of detected credit card numbers exceeds the value set as Permitted number of credit card numbers.

    Credit card number detection is based on the Luhn algorithm and lists of known credit card number prefixes.

  • window_title: Text appearing as window titles in case of RDP, Citrix ICA, and VNC connections. Only Windows Classic Themes are supported. Themes with rounded corners, or Windows Aero themes are not supported.

For example:

"selection": "window_title"
