  1. Login to the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) web interface.

  2. Navigate to User menu > Unlock Credential Store and select the Credential Store to unlock.

  3. Enter the password(s) for the Credential Store. For compound passwords, enter every element of the compound password in the correct order.

    • Letters A-Z, a-z

    • Numbers 0-9

    • The space character
