Step 8.2. PAM Policies

Step-by-step

1. To create a new PAM Policy, you must access the PAM Rules page in the following path:

Main Menu > Administration > Configure Soffid > Security settings > PAM policies

2. To create a new PAM policy, you must click the add button (+) and Soffid will display a new window to fill in the data.

The Name should be an identificative and unique policy name. That field will be mandatory.
The Description should be a brief description of the rule.
The Rules list: show a list of the PAM rules defined. You can check/uncheck the available options. You can choose zero, one, or several options:
- Close session: if you select this option when the rule is met, Soffid will close the session opened.
- Lock account: if you select this option when the rule is met, Soffid will lock the account.
- Open issue: if you select this option when the rule is met, Soffid will open an issue in the ticketing system.
- Notify: if you select this option when the rule is met, Soffid will send a notification about the action.
