Property | Description |
---|---|
Reasons |
Click Select Reason to add one or more reasons to the selected access request policy. Then, when requesting access to a password or a session, a user can select a predefined reason from a list. Click OK to add a reason. NOTE: You must have reasons configured in Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to use this option. For more information, see Reasons. If you do not see the reason you are looking for, you can create a reason from the Reasons selection dialog by clicking the Create New toolbar button. |
Require Reason |
Select this check box to require that a requester provide a Reason when requesting access. This option is only available if you have selected Reasons for the policy. If you add reasons to a policy, and leave this option cleared, the users will have the option of choosing a reason; but they will not be required to select a reason. |
Require Comment |
Select this check box to require that a requester provide a Comment when making an access request. |
Require Ticket Number |
Select this check box to require that a requester provide a ticket number when making an access request. The ticket number can be defined and not validated against an external ticketing system but, optionally, may be validated against the regular expression of a generic ticketing system. The ticket number is used to approve a password or session request and is tracked through the Activity Center. You can validate the ticket against your company's external ticket system, such as ServiceNow, or Remedy, or another ticketing system. To do this, you must have the ticketing system configured in Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to use this option. |
Duration of Access Approval |
Enter or select the default duration (days, hours, and minutes) that the requester can access the accounts and assets governed by this policy. The access duration cannot exceed a total of 31 days (44,640 minutes). |
Allow Requester to Change Duration | Select this check box to allow the requester the ability to modify the access duration. |
Maximum Time Requester Can Have Access |
If you select the Allow Requester to Change Duration option, you can set the maximum duration (days, hours, and minutes) that the requester can access the accounts and assets governed by this policy. The default access duration is seven days. The maximum access duration is 31 days. The users can change the access duration, but they cannot access the accounts or assets governed by this policy for longer than the maximum access duration time. |
