Password Integrity Report

 

 

Passwords of resources such as servers, databases, network devices and other applications are stored in PMP. It is quite possible that someone who have administrative access to these resources could access the resource directly and change the password of the administrative account. In such cases, the password stored in PMP would be outdated and will not be of use to the users who access PMP for the password. PMP provides option for checking the integrity of passwords at any point of time on demand and also at periodic intervals.

 

You can create a scheduled task for carrying out the integrity check at periodic intervals. Click "Schedule Report" and fill-in the details.

 

You can also generate the integrity report at any point of time by clicking the link "Generate Report". When you do so, you will get the results of the automatic integrity check done by PMP at 1 AM every day for all the accounts for which remote synchronization has been enabled. The results of the current day's check done at 1 AM will be depicted in the report.

 

In case, you want to carry out integrity check at any moment on demand to get latest details, you need to click the option "Run Integrity Check". PMP will try to establish connection with the target systems for all the accounts for which remote password synchronization has been enabled. Once the connection is established, it tries to login with the credentials stores in PMP. If login does not succeed, PMP concludes that the password is out of sync. In case, PMP is not even able to establish connection with the system due to some network problem, it will not be taken as password out of sync. A consolidated notification would be emailed to all the administrators and auditors.

 

The Password Integrity report provides information if the passwords in the system are in sync with the corresponding passwords in the target systems.

 

There are two sections in this report:

This section lists down the details in summary about the total number of passwords for which reset is supported, passwords for which reset is done using agents, number of passwords that were reset using agents, number of passwords  in the system are in sync with the corresponding passwords in the target systems, number of passwords that are out of sync etc.

PCI DSS Compliance Report

The PCI DSS stands for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. It is a multifaceted security standard that includes requirements for security management, policies, procedures, network architecture, software design and other critical protective measures. It represents a set of rules that need to be adhered to by businesses that process credit cardholder information, to ensure data is protected. The PCI Data Security Standard is comprised of 12 general requirements designed to:

  • Build and maintain a secure network

  • Protect cardholder data

  • Ensure the maintenance of vulnerability management programs

  • Implement strong access control measures

  • Regularly monitor and test networks

  • Ensure the maintenance of information security policies

This standard is governed by PCI Security Standards Council https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/

This reports the violations in your network from the requirements of Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard (DSS), relevant to the use and management practices of shared administrative, software and service account passwords of various systems.

 

PCI DSS requirements 2,3,7,8,10 & 12 are covered in this report.

 

Note: In order to adhere to "all" the requirements of the PCI DSS standard completely, you will need other tools and security procedures to be implemented.

 

 

You have the option to generate separate compliance reports for each PCI DSS requirement 2,3,7,8,10 & 12. You can also generate a consolidated PCI DSS report too.
