Vault Password Management

Vault is a feature that allows you to store credentials in your Safous ZTNA environment, making it easier for administrators to map certain access apps with the SSO function. Most application types in Safous ZTNA support SSO settings, except for Network Applications.


Vault has five types of credential management: Password, Private Key, Certificate, API Key, and Generic Secret. This article will explain only the Password-based vault management, which can be used for Basic and Windows SSO settings in the app.
