Searching audit trails: the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) connection database

One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) has a search interface for browsing the audit trails. This connection database also contains the various meta-information about connections and connection-requests. The search queries can include only alphanumerical characters.

To access the search interface, navigate to Search. Only users with the following privileges can access the Search page:

  • Members of groups who are configured as Authorizers with the Search or Search&Authorize permission set in the Access Control field of a connection policy. These users can access only the audit trails of the respective connections.

    For more information on configuring authorizers for a connection, see Configuring four-eyes authorization.

  • Members of groups who have the Search privilege set.

    Assigning the Search privilege to a user on the AAA page automatically enables the Search in all connections privilege, and grants the user access to every audit trail, even if the user is not a member of the groups listed in the Access Control option of the particular connection policy.

    For more information on configuring user rights, see Managing user rights and usergroups.

  • The admin user.
