Creating a New KeyControl-Managed User Account
- Log into the KeyControl Vault Management webGUI using an account with Security Admin privileges.
- In the top menu bar, click Users.
- Select Actions > Create User.
-
Enter the following information. All fields are required.
Field Descriptions
Field Description Full Name The full name of the user associated with the account. This name is included on any audit log messages generated by that user's activity. Therefore, we recommend that you specify a unique full name for each KeyControl user.
Email If your system is configured to send email alerts, they will be sent to this email address. The alerts a user sees depends on their user role and group access.
Account Decay
The amount of time an account can stay enabled without logging in. The default and maximum value is 10 years from the last login date.
If the user does not log in within that time period, KeyControl automatically disables the account, but does not delete it. You will need to contact Entrust Support to re-enable the account.
Account Enabled
Check this box to have the account be available as soon as you create it. If you clear this check box, KeyControl sets the account status to Disabled and you will need to manually enable it through the webGUI.
- Click Add.
- When you see the User Successfully Added message, click Close.
