About sessions and recordings

One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords proxies all sessions to target resources. Users do not have direct access to resources, therefore, the enterprise is protected against viruses, malware or other dangerous items on the user's system. Safeguard can proxy and record Unix/Linux, Windows, network devices, firewalls, routers and more.

NOTE: PuTTY is used to launch the SSH client for SSH session requests and is included in the install. The desktop client looks for any user-installed PuTTY in the following locations:

  • Any reference to putty in the PATH environment variable
  • c:/Program Files/Putty
  • c:/Program Files(x86)/Putty
  • c:/Putty

If PuTTY is not found, the desktop client uses the version of PuTTY that it installed at:

<user-home-dir>/AppData/Local/Safeguard/putty.

If the user later installs PuTTY in any of the locations above, the desktop client uses that version which ensures the user has the latest version of PuTTY.

Important notes

  • Sessions requests are enabled by default. However, if authorized users cannot request sessions, check the Session Requests Enabled setting in the desktop client (Administrative Tools | Settings | Access Request | Enable or Disable Services) or in the web client (Appliance Management | Enable or Disable Services).

    NOTE: You must have Appliance Administrator permissions to manage the service settings.

  • All session activity (every packet sent and action that takes place on the screen, including mouse movements, clicks, and keystrokes) is recorded and available for play back.
  • If Safeguard for Privileged Passwords detects no activity for 10 minutes during a privileged session, the session is closed.

Requesting session access

If you are designated as an authorized user of an entitlement, you can request access for a specific period (or session) to any account or asset in the scope of the entitlement's policies.

You can configure One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords to notify you of pending access request workflow events, such as when a session request is pending, denied, or revoked, and so on. For more information, see Configuring alerts.

To request session access ( web client)

  1. Click Home then New Request or open My Requests then click New Request.

    NOTE: You can also submit an access request from your Favorites pane, if you previously saved it as a favorite.

  1. On the New Access Request page, select the accounts to be included in the access request and the type of access being requested for each selected account. The accounts include linked accounts, if any. For more information, see Linked Accounts tab (user). You can search for accounts based on asset information. The assets available for selection are based on the scope defined in the entitlement's access request policies.

    If an SPS_Initiated connection policy is selected when creating an access request, the assets associated by that request will not display. The session-related access policy assigned to SPS_Initiated is filtered out. A connection policy other that SPS_Initiated must be selected to create an Access Request for the asset.

    NOTE: Use the button to select the columns to display.

    • Asset: The display name of the managed system.

    • Account: The available account appears in the Account column. When an asset has multiple accounts available, either Select Account(s) or the account name appears as a hyperlink in the Account column. Click the hyperlink in the Account column to display a list of accounts available and select the accounts to be included in the access request.

      If Show Account Availability is enabled you can identify if a privileged account is available or not. Accounts display a warning badge if in use by a request. An account's status is updated immediately after being changed in order to avoid overlapping account requests from multiple users. Hover over the badge to display <X> of <X> accounts in use. Showing account availability requires additional API queries that may impact performance. This toggle is set by the user not an administrator. There is no global toggle.

      NOTE: When the policy governing the request has enabled Allow simultaneous access for multiple user access, the request may still be available even though Show Account Request Availability indicates it is in use.

    • Access Type: The type of access request appears in the Access Type column. If the type is a drop-down, multiple access request types are available. Select the hyperlink and select the access type.

    • Account Description: (When applicable) The description of the account.

    • Asset Description: (When applicable) The description of the asset.

    You can remove an asset or account from the list by clearing the check box associated with an entry in the grid.

  4. To save the access request as a favorite, select the Save this request as a favorite check box and enter a name for the request.

    This access request is then added to your Favorites. In the web client, favorites are displayed on the Home page and the My Requests page. For more information, see Favorites (web client).

  5. After entering the required information, click Submit Request.

    Additional information displays if the access requests submitted were unsuccessful with information on how to address the issues. Once they have been addressed, you can resubmit the request.

When the request has been approved, you can use the password. For more information, see Taking action on a password release request.

To request session access ( desktop client)

  1. Go to the Home page, then click New Request.

    NOTE: You can also submit an access request from your Favorites pane, if you previously saved it as a favorite.

  2. On Asset Selection, select the assets to be included in the access request. The assets available for selection are based on the scope defined in the entitlement's access request policies. The limit is 50 assets.
    If an SPS_Initiated connection policy is selected when creating an access request, the assets associated by that request will not display. The session-related access policy assigned to SPS_Initiated is filtered out. A connection policy other that SPS_Initiated must be selected to create an Access Request for the asset.

  3. On Account & Access Type Selection, select the accounts to be included in the access request and the type of access being requested for each selected account. The accounts include linked accounts, if any. For more information, see Linked Accounts tab (user).

    4. Checkout Duration: This either displays the duration of the check out; or, if the Allow Requester to Change Duration option is enabled in the policy, it allows you to set the days, hours, and minutes that you want the password or SSH session and overrides the Checkout Duration set in the access request policy. For more information, see Creating an access request policy (desktop client).

    5. Ticket Number: If the policy requires a ticket number, enter a valid ticket number for this request. When multiple accounts are specified in the request, if any of the selected accounts require a ticket number, you must specify a valid ticket number. The specified ticket number will be applied to all of the requests associated with this access request. This feature is set up through the desktop client. For more information, see Ticketing systems.

    6. Reason: If the policy requires reason, select an access request reason code for this request. Select the Description down arrow to view the description defined for the selected reason. When multiple accounts are specified in the request, if any of the selected accounts require a reason, you must specify a reason.

  6. After entering the required information, click Submit Request. Access Request Result displays showing you the access requests submitted and whether a request was successful.

If the session does not launch

In a rare event that the access request does not result in a launchable session request, the following notifications display:

  • Please try again. The linked sessions module state is currently down or may be in a locked state. This message may mean one of the following:
    • SPP could not contact SPS. Try again so the request can be redirected to another managed host in the SPS cluster.

    • The SPS configuration is locked. Try again because this condition is typically because the SPS administrator is making configuration changes to the SPS appliance at the same time that a new access request is being created or a session is being launched.

  • Missing the session connection policy. or
    The selected Access Request Policy cannot be used to initiate a session from SPP. The highest priority policy must be associated with a valid SPS connection policy.
    Check the connection policy configuration. In the web client, go to Security Policy Management | Entitlements | (edit) | Access Request Policies to add a valid connection policy; or in the desktop client, go to Entitlements | Access Request Policy | Sessions Settings to add a valid connection policy. Save the policy and recreate the access request. For more information, see Session Settings tab (create access request policy desktop client).
