One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions 7.5 - Administration Guide

This section provides information on the necessary private keys and certificates for playing encrypted audit trails in your browser and on how to open a video file of an audit trail.

Prerequisites

To replay encrypted audit trails in your browser, you have to upload the necessary private keys to your audit keystore and the corresponding certificates to Basic settings > Local services > Indexer service. Depending on the encryption, decrypting the upstream part of an audit trail may require an additional set of certificates and keys.

Only RSA keys (in PEM-encoded X.509 certificates) can be uploaded to the private keystore.

Use every keypair or certificate only for one purpose. Do not reuse cryptographic keys or certificates (for example, do not use the certificate of the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) webserver to encrypt audit trails, or the same keypair for signing and encrypting data).

For more information, see Encrypting audit trails and Replaying audit trails in your browser.

To replay encrypted audit trails in your browser

1. On the Sessions page, select the audit trail you want to replay.

2. To display the details of a connection, click . This page is called the details view.

   NOTE: If you select the Automatic refresh option in User menu > Preferences, all the details of the sessions are refreshed automatically in the details view. For more information on the Automatic refresh option, see Preferences.

3. To play the video file, click .

4. (Optional) Unlock your keystore.

   If you have private keys stored in your audit keystore, the Unlock keystore dialog is displayed.

   Figure 314: Unlock keystore — Enter your master password

   

   Enter your master password and click Unlock keystore.

   The keystore is unlocked and you can use your keys or you can add new keys.

5. (Optional) If there is a missing private key, the Private keys missing dialog opens.

   Figure 315: Private keys missing dialog

   

   Click Upload private keys, which takes you to User menu > Audit keystore, where you can add the keys.

   • If you have not added any private keys yet to your audit keystore, see section Adding the first private key to your audit keystore.

   • If you have previously added private keys to your audit keystore, see section Adding further private keys to your audit keystore.

6. (Optional) If necessary, add any missing certificates on Basic settings > Local services > Indexer service.

   Previously, the audit keystore was used to store certificates as well as private keys. From SPS version 6.10 and onwards, you must upload the certificates to Basic settings > Local services > Indexer service.

   For more information on how to add certificates, see Configuring the internal indexer.

   After uploading the private keys and the corresponding certificates, the encrypted upstream traffic elements are decrypted. The trail is decrypted and decompressed on the client-side. As a result, the encrypted elements will be displayed distributed in the video (for more information, see Player window controls in Replaying audit trails in your browser).

7. (Optional) After uploading any missing private keys or certificates, to play the video, click .

   1. (Optional) If there are more channels that can be played, select the channel that you want to play in the Multiple channels are available dialog and click Play video.
