Create a New Password Safe On-Premises Connector

You can connect Identity Security Insights to both cloud and on-premises instances of Password Safe to automatically scan for associated accounts and track your organization’s identities in summarized visualizations.

For Password Safe 24.1.1 and newer releases, when an Identity Security Insights connector installation key is enabled in Password Safe, discovery scan events are forwarded from the event service to Identity Security Insights. This provides visibility into possible attack paths, identity-based threats, and identity hygiene issues.
