SecurityExpressions Console Credential Stores
When you create a Credential Store in the SecurityExpressions Console, you create a container
that securely saves all of your machine list and host (target system) credentials in the database.
After you create the credential store, you can delegate the credentials to the Audit & Compliance
Server. This allows users belonging to certain Windows Groups to perform operations using the
delegated credentials without knowing or seeing the credentials.
Software Registration
The Software Registration options on the Application Setup page let you register the software for
use. You must enter a valid license key in order to activate the server application. If you
purchased the Audit-on-Connect component, you must activate that feature with a second license
key.
To register the software:
1. In the SecurityExpressions Audit and Compliance Server License Key box, enter the
license key for general use of the application.
2. If you purchased Audit-on-Connect, in the SecurityExpressions Audit-on-Connect License
Key box, enter the license key for that component.
3. Click Apply.
