Adding a dynamic account group

It is the responsibility of the Security Policy Administrator to add dynamic account groups to Safeguard for Privileged Passwords.

Dynamic account groups are associated with rules engines that run when pertinent objects are created or changed. For example:

  • Whenever you add or change an asset account, all applicable rules are reevaluated against that asset account.
  • Whenever you change an asset account rule, the rule is reevaluated against all asset accounts within the scope of that rule. In other words, the rule is reevaluated against all asset accounts for grouping and the asset accounts within the designated partitions for tagging.

You can create a dynamic account group without any rules; however, no accounts will be added to this dynamic account group until you have added a rule.

In large environments, there is a possibility that the user interface may return before all of the rules have been reevaluated and you may not see the results you were expecting. If this happens, wait a few minutes and Refresh the screen to view the results.
