Credentials

Path: Scanning > Credentials (administrator users) or Scans > Credentials (organizational users)

Credentials are reusable objects that facilitate scan target login.

Credentials created by an administrator user are available to all organizations, while those created by organizational users are only available to their organization. Users can share credentials with other users, allowing them to scan remote hosts without knowing the credentials of the host.

SecurityCenter supports four types of credentials:

• Database Credentials
• SNMP Credentials
• SSH Credentials
• Windows Credentials

To add credentials, see Add Credentials.
