Creating new credentials
You can create certificate, username, password, private key, CyberArk and Amazon credentials that Trust Protection Platform can use to authenticate to devices or applications over SSH.
NOTE To create new credential objects, you must have the View, Write, and Create permissions for the folder where you plan to create them.
In Aperture, permissions are controlled in the Permissions panel. For information about working with permissions in Aperture, see Assigning permissions to objects.
NOTE Amazon, Google, CyberArk and Adaptable credentials require additional configuration settings.
