Senhasegura securely centralizes all of your credentials
Exposure and misuse of privileged accounts are extremely inviting to cyberattacks. In recent attacks on corporations of all sizes, intruders stole and exploited privileged accounts to take hostile control of the entire company’s infrastructure.Consequently, hackers can explore the whole virtual space, literally moving across the corporate network without being detected, and thus achieve the purpose of the attack.senhasegura is a privileged access management (Gartner Challenger) software solution that stores, manages and monitors all credentials, such as passwords, SSH keys and digital certificates, in a secure digital vault. Using encryption mechanisms, the password vault offers users the ability to use only one password to access a series of credentials registered in the solution. Additionally, senhasegura can be used to access all network resources through SSH and RDP protocols, storing all records of their use for audit and compliance analysis purposes. Its intelligence allows for real-time analysis of actions taken by users and alert generation to identify fraud or inappropriate action.The senhasegura team is proud to develop a 100% Brazilian solution.

Privileged Access Management Flow
Password life cycle
Like many elements in technology infrastructure, passwords have a life cycle: they are created to provide users with access to their activities, and last for a certain amount of time before being changed.
