Change the password in the first login, validation of the complexity of the new password created with comparison of the history of passwords used.
User Registration: Complete user registration with change and configuration traceability.
Profile Management: Advanced granular profile management with ability to create according to each user profile.
Screen's Log: System screen view log.
Screen Identification by codes: Each system screen is uniquely identified with a code, making service and support easy.
External Authentication Servers: In addition to its own authentication module, senhasegura can be used in conjunction with other directory services. You can set up senhasegura to perform authentication across multiple servers, including establishing an authentication order. The main authentication servers that integrate with senhasegura are Active Directory, LDAP, TACACS and RADIUS.
Two Factor Authentication: You can reinforce the authentication process through Multi-factor authentication using, for example, the Google Authenticator application.
IP Access Blocking: senhasegura is able to block access through a pre-established IP denylist.
Session Management: In the tool, the session management module is responsible for checking session validity and setting a timeout until the next login.
Authentication with A1 and A3 Certificates: The authentication process can be carried out using A1 and A3 certificates as the second authentication factor.
Base Module - Password and Information Vault
This module is the core of the password vault, and has the following functions:
Password Guard: Storage of passwords in the vault, encrypted in AES 256 algorithm with double encryption factor. Passwords can only be accessed in this module through the Access Management module.
Protected Information Guard: The password vault allows encrypted storage of information such as tokens, certificates and files in general.
Backup of Secrets: Passwords, protected information, and SSH keys require an independent backup unit in the solution.
The information vault and passwords are responsible for writing the secrets to a backup encrypted by the Shamir algorithm-based master vault key.
HSM Integration: Integration with external or internal Hardware Security Module devices
Base Module - Equipment Register
This module is the password senhasegura interface with the assets that will have their passwords managed, and includes the following functions:
Registration Interface: Where the equipment registration occurs, either by web screen individually, or by the batch registration process.

Encryption and Security Features
Encryption
All sensitive information provided is stored encrypted in the solution database using the AES-256 cipher.
For authentication to the senhasegura web interface - both locally and via external authentication servers - all user passwords are stored in SHA-256 hash format. The communication between the client workstation and the senhasegura is made through encrypted communication respecting the encryption standards of the protocols used. Independent of the communication channel, be it RDP, SSH or HTTPS.
Likewise, access to remote target devices respects the same encryption standard in all protocols that allow configuration.

Availability and Contingency
The senhasegura system supports operation on virtual or physical appliances. The senhasegura virtual appliance is customized for installation without releasing administrative users in the operating system.
In any configuration, the system supports high availability and external contingency disaster configurations.
High Availability
Contingency and Disaster Recovery
Backup
senhasegura has several mechanisms to recover information in case of failure:
Encrypted Password Backup
External in client infrastructure. The backup file of this information is password protected, which is distributed in multiple custody among trusted participants at the client's free choice. At least two custodian users are required to receive and retrieve the information. Once the senhasegura delivery ceremony has taken place, all passwords to the safe will be reset and the client will receive their respective custody, except for the passwords to the senhasegura database and operating system.
From version 3.10 on the backup procedure will also be performed for user passwords and Access Keys of the DevSecOps module.
Backup Fast Recovery
Internal and rapid recovery. Stores more critical information, is considered faster, because with the content of the base available the environment is recovered quickly and already becomes accessible upon request.
Encrypted Backup of Settings
Allows not only the stored data but also the password settings to be available for retrieval. This backup is not enabled by default, but its activation is available in system settings.
Safe Video Backup
The senhasegura allows the backup of the videos to be stored in a remote directory under the responsibility of the client. By default the videos are stored in the solution's file system.
Secrets Backup
The backup of secrets: console credentials and access keys are stored in dedicated directories.
Monitoring and Syslog and SIEM
senhasegura has monitoring capabilities designed to alert administrators of any process, integration, connectivity, or access failure.
This system issues on-screen alerts to the administrator or via email, SMS, snmpmibs and snmptraps.
The solution can be integrated with any industry tool using SNMP V1, V2 or V32 standard.
Integration with Syslog and SIEM services.
Own integration with ArcSight.
Browser Compatibility
The senhasegura web interface is accessible only through HTTPS protocol, and it is recommended that you provide your own SSL certificate in accordance with current security assumptions.
senhasegura uses HTML5 and WebSocket technology and only browsers that support these technologies will provide a complete passwords security experience. It also maintains compatibility with browsers in their most recent versions:
Internet Explorer
Google Chrome
Microsoft Edge
Mozilla Firefox

Resource limit
The platform senhasegura has some features that are technically limited, either for reasons for database limitations, operating system limitations, file-system limitations or software architecture limitations.
The limitations relating to contract or license are fixed by contract, and will not be addressed in this topic.
The limitations relating to the number of contracted instances, in a cluster scenario, will also not be addressed in this topic. We will focus on limitations on an instance and its components.
User Limit
Technically, the application will support up to 16,500,000 user records. This number is shared with WebService A2A users, service users, and actual system users. This number does not express the ability of all these users are using the system simultaneously. Simultaneous use capacity may vary according to the type of use, quantity of contracted instances and network latency supplied.
Device Limit
The technically application will support up to 16,500,000 device records. This number contains even inactivated devices over time. This number does not express the ability of all these devices are being accessed via proxy, or any other asynchronous process that accesses the device simultaneously. The ability to manage devices can vary by the number of contracted instances, supported systems and protocols and the network latency provided.
Credentials Limit and Protected Information
The application technically will support up to 16,500,000 credential records. This number contains even inactive credentials over time. This number does not express the ability of all these credentials are being accessed and used by asynchronous tasks or proxy sessions simultaneously. The ability to manage credentials can vary by the amount of contracted instances and the network latency provided.
Proxy session recording
Different from other market solutions, the senhasegura does not perform screen captures in image format, or real-time mp4 videos or other media formats. The real persistence of protocol ensures a faithful and optimized copy of the session. Inactivity times are recorded through 4Bytes timestamp per second, unlike screens capture that would consume much more resources. Native format recording of the protocol already considers the native compression format of the protocol.
User behavior will define the amount of sessions that can be stored. Not excluding the possibility of disk expansion or remote storage mapping to increase storage capacity.
This combination of factors makes the limit of sessions virtually unlimited. Consider the performance table described in the techspec-performance session to calculate your need.
Simultaneous proxy sessions
The amount of simultaneous sessions may vary with the amount of contracted instances, making the solution appropriate to its need without excessive hiring of resources. The cluster architecture also allows the definition of dedicated nodes for specific protocols, or the definition of dedicated instances for different datacenters or network segments. This combination of factors makes the limit of sessions virtually unlimited. Consider the performance table described in the techspec-performance session to calculate your need.
