Keeper Connections allow users to instantly and securely access assets within their target infrastructure, such as servers, databases, web apps and workloads directly from their Keeper Vault. Connections can be established without exposing the underlying credentials to the user, ensuring zero-trust and zero-knowledge access.
Keeper Connections are configured on PAM Machine, PAM Database, PAM Directory and PAM Remote Browser record types, and once configured, connections are launched directly from these records.
Connections are launched directly from the Vault interface with one click. The connection is established between the Keeper Gateway and the target machine, and the session is visually projected into the Vault where you can interact seamlessly.
Full screen mode and zoom controls are available from the upper right corner of the window.
The Connection Dock provides instant switching between active sessions. The dock can be moved to any desired location on the screen.
The dock can be minimized and moved anywhere on the screen.
When launching a connection, the Web and Desktop Vault Client will render a window with the established connection protocol to the specified target defined on the PAM record. This is done by:
The Vault Client communicating with the Keeper Gateway with the relevant connection info through a secure tunnel
The Keeper Gateway then establishes the connection protocol to the target defined on the PAM Record
After establishing the connection, the Keeper Gateway projects the visual session to the Keeper vault client.
IT Admins, DevOps and development teams struggle with protecting access to cloud and on-prem infrastructure to endpoints like remote desktops, Windows machines, Linux Servers, critical web-based apps, Kubernetes clusters and Databases.
