Senhasegura PAM Platform Skill

Comprehensive guide for integrating with senhasegura (Segura) Privileged Access Management platform. Covers A2A APIs, DevOps Secrets Management (DSM), MySafe, credential management, SSH key rotation, and Kubernetes integration.

Platform Overview

Core Modules

Authentication Methods

Authentication Setup

OAuth 2.0 Configuration (Recommended)

Step 1: Create A2A Application

senhasegura Console:
1. Navigate to: A2A > Applications
2. Click: + New Application
3. Configure:
   - Name: my-app-integration
   - Authentication: OAuth 2.0
   - Enabled: Yes
4. Save and note the Client ID

Step 2: Retrieve Credentials

After saving:
1. Go to: A2A > Applications > [your-app]
2. Click: Authorization > View
3. Copy:
   - client_id: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
   - client_secret: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Step 3: Request Access Token

# OAuth 2.0 Token Request
curl -X POST "https://senhasegura.example.com/iso/oauth2/token" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
  -d "grant_type=client_credentials" \
  -d "client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID" \
  -d "client_secret=YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET"

Response:

{
  "access_token": "eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsInR...",
  "token_type": "Bearer",
  "expires_in": 3600
}

Step 4: Use Token in API Calls

curl -X GET "https://senhasegura.example.com/api/pam/credential" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"

PAM Core API Reference

  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

SSH Keys API

Endpoints

Register SSH Key

curl -X POST "https://senhasegura.example.com/api/pam/sshkey" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \

Workflows

Workflow 1: Initial A2A Setup

1. Create Application
   Console: A2A > Applications > New
   - Name: app-integration
   - Authentication: OAuth 2.0
   - Status: Enabled

2. Configure Authorization
   Console: A2A > Authorizations > New
   - Application: app-integration
   - Module: PAM Core (or DSM)
   - Permission: Read/Write
   - IP Restriction: 10.0.0.0/8 (optional)
   - Credential filter: tag:production (optional)

3. Test Authentication
   curl -X POST "$URL/iso/oauth2/token" \
     -d "grant_type=client_credentials" \
     -d "client_id=$CLIENT_ID" \
     -d "client_secret=$CLIENT_SECRET"

4. Verify Access
   curl -X GET "$URL/api/pam/credential" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

Workflow 2: Kubernetes Secret Sync

1. Install External Secrets Operator
   helm install external-secrets external-secrets/external-secrets

2. Create Auth Secret
   kubectl create secret generic senhasegura-auth \
     --from-literal=clientId=xxx \
     --from-literal=clientSecret=xxx

3. Create SecretStore
   kubectl apply -f secretstore.yaml

4. Create ExternalSecret
   kubectl apply -f externalsecret.yaml

5. Verify Sync
   kubectl get externalsecret
   kubectl get secret db-secret -o yaml

Workflow 3: Password Rotation Automation

1. Configure Execution Template
   Console: Executions > Templates
   - Template: Linux Password Change
   - Commands: passwd, chage
   - Verification: SSH login test

2. Create Execution Policy
   Console: Executions > Policies
   - Credentials: tag:linux-servers
   - Schedule: Every 30 days
   - Template: Linux Password Change
   - Notification: security@example.com

3. Monitor Executions
   Console: Executions > History
   - Filter by date/status
   - Review logs
   - Handle failures

Security Best Practices

Credential Management

DO:
- Use one credential per A2A authorization
- Apply IP restrictions to authorized networks only
- Enable automatic password rotation
- Use unique identifiers for credentials
- Audit access logs regularly

DON'T:
- Share A2A credentials across applications
- Disable IP restrictions in production
- Store credentials in source code
- Use weak or default passwords
- Ignore failed authentication alerts

API Security

# Good: Use environment variables
import os
client = A2A(
    base_url=os.environ["SENHASEGURA_URL"],
    client_id=os.environ["SENHASEGURA_CLIENT_ID"],
    client_secret=os.environ["SENHASEGURA_CLIENT_SECRET"]
)

# Good: Release custody after use
try:
    password = client.get_password(credential_id)
    # Use password
finally:
    client.release_custody(credential_id)

Kubernetes Security

# Use namespaced SecretStore when possible
apiVersion: external-secrets.io/v1beta1
kind: SecretStore  # Not ClusterSecretStore
metadata:
  name: app-secrets
  namespace: my-app  # Limit scope
spec:
  provider:
    senhasegura:
      # ...
---
# Restrict RBAC
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: Role
metadata:
  name: secret-reader
  namespace: my-app
rules:
  - apiGroups: [""]
    resources: ["secrets"]
    resourceNames: ["db-secret", "api-secret"]  # Specific secrets only
    verbs: ["get"]

Troubleshooting

Authentication Errors

DSM CLI Issues

# Debug mode
dsm runb --debug \
  --application myapp \
  --system prod \
  --environment prod

# Common fixes
# 1. Config file not found
export SENHASEGURA_CONFIG_FILE=/absolute/path/to/config.yaml

# 2. SSL certificate errors
# Add to config.yaml:
# SENHASEGURA_INSECURE: true  # Not recommended for production

# 3. Permission denied
chmod 600 ~/.senhasegura/config.yaml

External Secrets Operator

# Check SecretStore status
kubectl describe secretstore senhasegura-dsm

# Check ExternalSecret status
kubectl describe externalsecret database-credentials

# View ESO logs
kubectl logs -n external-secrets -l app.kubernetes.io/name=external-secrets

# Common issues:
# - "could not get provider client": Check auth secret
# - "could not find secret": Verify secret identifier in DSM
# - "refresh failed": Check network/firewall to senhasegura

Common API Patterns

# Get token

  -d "grant_type=client_credentials" \
  -d "client_id=$CLIENT_ID" \
  -d "client_secret=$CLIENT_SECRET" | jq -r '.access_token')

# List credentials
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" "$URL/api/pam/credential"

# Get password
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" "$URL/iso/coe/senha?credentialId=123"

# Release custody
curl -X DELETE -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  "$URL/iso/pam/credential/custody/123"
