Launch an authenticated scan on a target machine where the authentication record for the target specifies a vault type and vault record. We will send a request to the scanner appliance with information defined in the vault record. The appliance uses this information, along with information from the authentication record, to request sensitive information from the vault - the password for a given user name, the private key and/or private key passphrase for a given certificate, the password for root delegation. The information requested depends on the host technology and authentication record settings. The scanner appliance must be able to access vault endpoints for successful retrieval of credentials.
Use the following APIs to manage vaults.
