We are planning to discover and onboard following Service accounts to Saviynt and rotate passwords on a regular basis.

  • Windows Services
  • Schedule Tasks
  • IIS Pools
  • Configuration files (XML, INI)
  • Scripts (PS or Python or Java)
  • DevOps Pipelines

Is there a way to discover dependencies for Service accounts ?

Where to update Service account dependencies ?

If Service required a restart after password change, Is there a way to restart service from Saviynt ?

How to monitor password change activity for Service accounts ?

We have support to discover service accounts in windows services like Task Schedulers, COM+ Objects, Windows Services. These can be discovered and their passwords can be rotated.

Discovery of below type of service accounts and rotation of their password is not supported yet:

  • IIS Pools
  • Configuration files (XML, INI)
  • Scripts (PS or Python or Java)
  • DevOps Pipelines

Thank you @Gulshan for the response.

Please provide the steps to discover and manage credentials for Service accounts.

Also please confirm, Is it possible to provision JIT service accounts on Windows/Linux/DB through Saviynt ?

JIT process is not there for service accounts.  Currently JIT process is only for user privileged accounts which are correlated to that specific user.

Is there a way to implement the below use-case ?


Use-case: Onboard least privileged Azure service account and configure Role-based JIT


Description: Discover and onboard a least privileged service accounts from the Azure cloud to Saviynt CPAM, and then configure the Role-based JIT so that the service account elevated when the scheduled job is executed.
