HashiCorp Integration

Privilege Secure contains a built-in vault for credential management, but can uniquely map to a HashiCorp vault. HashiCorp connectors can be used for the following purposes:

  • Service Accounts – Use to perform Active Directory synchronization
  • Activities – Use to configure the target account for the activity

HashiCorp connectors use the Active Directory Secrets Engine. The Active Directory Secrets Engine defines a collection of usernames and passwords in each library endpoint, so when Privilege Secure performs a checkout of the account using the library, the actual account returned may vary.

Install Active Directory Secrets Engine​

Before configuring Privilege Secure to use a HashiCorp connector, the Active Directory Secrets Engine must be installed in the HashiCorp Vault. See the HashiCorp Active Directory Secrets Engine article for additional information.
