Managing Secrets


The credentials of shared privileged accounts are stored in account secrets.

NOTE: As a root user, the built-in default admin user of Ekran System has the Owner Role Type permissions for all secrets, and is therefore able to both edit and access all secrets added by other Ekran System users.


The following types of accounts can be accessed by using a secret:

  • Active Directory accounts
  • Windows accounts
  • Unix accounts (SSH)
  • Unix accounts (Telnet)
  • Web accounts
  • MS SQL accounts


To protect sensitive data, secrets are encrypted using AES-256.
