2. Introduction
senhasegura is a software and hardware solution that stores, manages, and monitors all
credentials such as passwords, SSH keys, and digital certificates in a secure, tamper-resistant
location. By using encryption mechanisms, the password vault offers users the ability to use a
password only to access a series of credentials registered in the solution. In addition, through
senhasegura, it is possible to safely access all network resources through SSH and RDP
protocols, storing all usage records for audit and compliance analysis purposes.
3. Purpose
The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to users who use senhasegura's
administrator features, as well as to discuss details on its use, benefits, concepts, and
procedures.
4. Support
MT4 Tecnologia provides product support through an online knowledge base, as well as
through telephone and email support. Please consult your system administrator for more
information on the options available for your company.
5. Overview
In organizational settings, the exposure and misuse of privileged accounts are extremely
inviting to cyberattacks. In recent attacks on corporations of all sizes, attackers steal and
exploit privileged accounts to take control of the entire company's infrastructure in a hostile
manner.
For this reason, hackers can explore all virtual space, literally moving across the
corporate network without being detected, and thus achieving their attacking goals.
5.2. Definitions
senhasegura uses a specific terminology for its functions and functionalities. Thus,
some terms must be understood before starting to use the solution:
User - In-house employees, interns or third parties who use or may require access to the
company's systems.
Auditor - user with a profile for the issuance of specific reports in the senhasegura
solution.
Password custody - possession and use of credentials stored in the senhasegura solution
by the user
Password policy - set of rules determined to improve the security of a company's users
and devices
Access groups - used to grant and manage viewing and access to vault credentials
Governance ID - it is used to associate an activity performed in senhasegura to a
Changes Management item, such as a Help Desk ticket for example;
Password strength - a measure that assesses a password's effectiveness against attacks,
and it is based on estimating the number of attempts to guess it
Protected information - any type of privileged information, such as hashes, RSA keys or
digital certificates;
Global parameters - behavior settings that can be adjusted globally in senhasegura
Equipment parameters - behavior settings that can be adjusted in the solution for each
type of equipment
Password parameters - Behavior settings that can be adjusted in the solution for each
credential
6. Introduction
The purpose of this document is to assist senhasegura deployers in performing the initial
settings of the senhasegura environment.
7. Initial settings
Please note that we'll provide the users and passwords over another
communication channel. If you have any issues, please reach out to the deployment
team over the e-mail [email protected].
Perform authentication through the initial user, to access the senhasegura configuration
environment.
1. Select the Yes option to use the settings through DHCP. If the No option is
selected, you must perform the network setup manually.
If you have selected the No option when setting the DHCP, follow these steps:
1. In the Network Settings section, fill in the following fields:
# Field Description

deployment team over the e-mail [email protected].
7. Perform authentication through the initial user to perform access to Orbit and
finalize the installation.
The access to the environment can be performed by using the network user for
authentication through Active Directory, if configured. In this case, the same network
user password must be used. You can access the senhasegura environment through a
local user on the system.
If a local user is chosen, when performing the first access, the user may be required to
change the password according to the security and password strength policies from their
organization.
