Secure Connect Gateway 5.x — Virtual Edition User's Guide

Add a credential vault

About this task

A credential vault is a secure system that allows you to store all the certificates and credentials of the devices that you manage in secure connect gateway. Depending on the devices in your environment, you can add one or more credential vaults. Once a vault is added, you can create account credentials for your devices by mapping the credential vault account ID.

Steps

  1. Go to Device management > Manage credentials > Manage credential vaults > Add vault.
    The Add a credential vault window is displayed.
  2. Enter the following details:
    1. Vault name—a user-defined name.
    2. Vault server hostname/IP—depending on the vault setup, enter the hostname or IP address of the vault server.
    3. Port no—the default port for credential vault is 443. However, if you have configured CyberArk with Conjur API using another port, enter that port number.
  3. If you select the vault type as CyberArk Conjur, enter these additional details:
    1. Organization account name—the account name for your organization. For example: myvault, myorg.
    2. Client login name—enter an alphanumeric login name.
    3. API key—an alphanumeric value. This key helps to retrieve the credentials dynamically from the vault. For more information about how to set the API key, see CyberArk Conjur - Rest API.
    4. Authentication method—the method you choose to send the authentication request to CyberArk with Conjur API. The following authenticators are supported in secure connect gateway: Azure, GCP, JWT, OIDC, K8S, and LDAP.
  4. If you select the vault type as CyberArk CCP, perform the following steps:
    1. Enter the Application ID—the ID assigned to your device.
    2. Enter the Safe Name—enter an alphanumeric name.
    3. Upload a certificate, enter the passphrase, and click Validate.
  5. Click Add. For more information, see CyberArk CCP.

Results

A success message is displayed if the details are correct. An error message is displayed if the details are incorrect, or if secure connect gateway is unable to connect to the credential vault.
