Verify Privilege Vault Integration

Verify Privilege Vault Integration Key

View Integration Key: This key is copied to Verify Privilege Vault and provides access information for Verify Privilege Vault to authenticate with and upload data to VP-VA.

  • Version 10.4.000000 and Later

    • VP-VA Key Pair /Verify Privilege Vault Key Pair: Key exchange is used by VP-VA during Single Sign On in order to verify Verify Privilege Vault’s (as an identity provider) user claims. In the opposite direction, it is used by Verify Privilege Vault as an additional layer of security to verify that Access Challenges were signed by the authorized VP-VA instance.
    • Initiate Key Rotation: VP-VA initiates a key rotation in which both Verify Privilege Vault and VP-VA generate a new key pair and exchange the new public key with each other using the last public key to sign this new exchange. Keys are typically rotated periodically as a security best practice.
    • Clear Keys: This is used only when migrating from one Verify Privilege Vault instance to a completely new Verify Privilege Vault instance while using the same VP-VA instance or when troubleshooting issues with key exchange. CAUTION: This clears all key pairs (both Verify Privilege Vault and VP-VA) from VP-VA’s database. After clearing, the integration key is copied to the target Verify Privilege Vault and the initial key exchange is conducted, the same as with a fresh configuration of VP-VA-Verify Privilege Vault integration.
