When a request for a non-computer credential is approved, users check out the credential to access the resources authorized by the credential. When the user is done with the credential—or credential – or the allocated time frame for using the credential has expired—the expired – the credential is checked in. Depending on the policy associated with the credential, the password may or may not be reset by the EmpowerID system.

To initiate any credential vaulting for non-computer credentials, a user needs an access assignment that includes the following the Management Roles. Please note that the VIS-* and ACT-* Management Roles are scoped by location; thus a user will only need to have the specific roles pertaining to the location(s) for which they are responsible for vaulting credentials. Please note that the below list of Management Roles contains only those roles needed to vault non-computer credentials. If a person needs to manage shared credentials in other ways, such as approving check-out requests, that person would need a different set of Management Roles. For a complete list of the Management Roles associated with shared credentials, please see PAM Management Roles.
Users who vault credentials are the owners or Access Managers for those credentials. Access Managers can approve or deny access requests for the credentials they own. |
