System requirements and versions

Safeguard for Privileged Passwords allows you to manage access requests, approvals, and reviews for your managed accounts and systems.

  • The web client consists of an end-user view and administrator view. The fully featured client exposes all of the functionality of Safeguard based on the role of the authenticated user.
  • The web management console displays whenever you connect to the virtual appliance and is used for first time configuration.
    When setting up a virtual environment, carefully consider the configuration aspects such as CPU, memory availability, I/O subsystem, and network infrastructure to ensure the virtual layer has the necessary resources available. See One Identity's Product Support Policies for more information on environment virtualization.

Ensure that your system meets the minimum hardware and software requirements for these clients.

If a Safeguard Sessions Appliance is linked to Safeguard for Privileged Passwords, session recording is handled via Safeguard for Privileged Session. The link is initiated from Safeguard for Privileged Sessions. For details about the link steps and issue resolution, see the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions Administration Guide.

Bandwidth

It is recommended that connection, including overhead, is faster than 10 megabits per second inter-site bandwidth with a one-way latency of less than 500 milliseconds. If you are using traffic shaping, you must allow sufficient bandwidth and priority to port 655 UDP in the shaping profile. These numbers are offered as a guideline only in that other factors could require additional network tuning. These factors include but are not limited to: jitter, packet loss, response time, usage, and network saturation. If there are any further questions, please check with your Network Administration team.

Platforms and versions follow.

  • You must license the VM with a Microsoft Windows license. We recommend using either the MAK or KMS method. Specific questions about licensing should be directed to your Sales Representative.

  • Supported hypervisors:
    • Microsoft Hyper-V (VHDX) version 8 or higher
    • VMware vSphere with vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi) versions 6.5 or higher
    • VMware Worksation version 13 or higher

  • Minimum resources: 4 CPUs, 10GB RAM, and a 500GB disk. The virtual appliances default deploy does not provide adequate resources. Ensure these minimum resources are met.

Supported platforms

Safeguard for Privileged Passwords supports a variety of platforms, including custom platforms.

Safeguard for Privileged Passwords tested platforms

The following table lists the platforms and versions that have been tested for Safeguard for Privileged Passwords (SPP). Additional assets may be added to Safeguard for Privileged Passwords. If you do not see a particular platform listed when adding an asset, use the Other, Other Managed, Other Directory, or Linux selection on the Management tab of the Asset dialog. For more information, see Management tab (add asset).

SPP linked to SPS: Sessions platforms

CAUTION: When linking your One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) deployment to your One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords (SPP) deployment, ensure that the SPS and SPP versions match exactly, and keep the versions synchronized during an upgrade. For example, you can only link SPS version 6.6 to SPP version 6.6, and if you upgrade SPS to version 6.7, you must also upgrade SPP to 6.7.

Make sure that you do not mix Long Term Supported (LTS) and feature releases. For example, do not link an SPS version 6.0.1 to an SPP version 6.1.

When Safeguard for Privileged Passwords (SPP) is linked with a Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) appliance, platforms are supported that use one of these protocols:

  • SPP 2.8 or lower: RDP, SSH
  • SPP 2.9 or higher: RDP, SSH, or Telnet

Some platforms may support more than one protocol. For example, a Linux (or Linux variation) platform supports both SSH and Telnet protocols.

For all supported platforms, it is assume that you are applying the latest updates. For unpatched versions of supported platforms, Support will investigate and assist on a case by case basis but it may be necessary for you to upgrade the platform or use SPP's custom platform feature.

Custom platforms

The following example platform scripts are available:

  • Custom HTTP
  • Linux SSH
  • Telnet
  • TN3270 transports are available

For more information, see Custom platforms and Creating a custom platform script.

Sample custom platform scripts and command details are available at the following links available from the Safeguard Custom Platform Home wiki on GitHub:

CAUTION: Example scripts are provided for information only. Updates, error checking, and testing are required before using them in production. Safeguard for Privileged Passwords checks to ensure the values match the type of the property that include a string, boolean, integer, or password (which is called secret in the API scripts). Safeguard for Privileged Passwords cannot check the validity or system impact of values entered for custom platforms.
