My Access

My Access page enumerates the services the user is assigned and has access to. Moreover, the search field is bespoke, allows the user to search the services based on the LOB, Service Type, and the IP Address and also mark the favourite services for easy access. Once located, the service can be accessed.

My Preferences

My Preferences help manage the integrated third-party application’s exe path. Every user account has its own preferences that can be set for their own desktop/workstation for each Service Type and the path can be updated when required.

Service Access Request

ARCON PAM Service Access Request feature, allows a PAM user to request access to a certain target device with a privileged id. This request is then submitted to one or multiple superiors (which can be defined in the workflow). While raising the request, the user can state the duration of access to that particular service and the reason for access.The PAM user can carry out the task, by accessing the device which gets listed in the Connections page post approval.

Service Password Request

ARCON PAM Service Password Request feature, allows a PAM user to request for the password of a privileged id on a target device. A user can only request the passwords of those services he has access to. This request is then submitted to one or multiple superiors (which can be defined in the workflow). Once the Admin approves the request, the user will get a notification on the Dashboard and the password can be viewed in a secure mailbox provided inside the PAM portal itself.
