Transparent password synchronization trigger software

When you implement transparent synchronization, you install special software on the trigger system to monitor password changes and test the strength of new password choices. This software communicates with the Password Manager service on the Bravura Pass server, using an encrypted TCP socket connection.

Software for the following triggers is shipped with Bravura Security Fabric :

  • Password Change Notification Module: The psintcpt program intercepts native password changes on Microsoft Active Directory domain controllers and Windows servers, and triggers transparent password synchronization.

    You install this software using the intcpt.msi or intcpt-x64.msi installer.

  • LDAP password filter plugin (psldap): The psldap program intercepts native password changes on LDAP Directory Service servers and triggers transparent password synchronization.

    Software for Windows-based LDAP servers is stored on the Bravura Security Fabric server when you install Bravura Security Fabric. You copy it and configure it on the LDAP server.

    Software for Unix-based LDAP servers is stored on the Bravura Security Fabric server when you install Connector Pack. You copy it and configure it on the LDAP server.

  • Password replacement program (pspasswd ): The Bravura Security password replacement program (pspasswd ) intercepts native password changes on Unix servers and triggers transparent password synchronization.

    Software for Unix triggers is stored on the Bravura Security Fabric server when you install Connector Pack . You copy it and configure it on the LDAP server.

  • OS/400 exit program (pspwdexit): This exit program Intercepts password changes on IBM OS/400 and propagates them to the Bravura Security Fabric server for policy validation and to initiate transparent synchronization.

See the Transparent Password Synchronization for more information about this feature and installing software for the above trigger systems.

The OS/390 mainframe trigger software is shipped with Mainframe Connector. See the Mainframe Connector documentation for more information.
