SSH credentials for remote audits

SSH access

Remote audits (Lynis, OpenSCAP, etc.) require an SSH connection profile:

  1. Open Settings → Connectors → Remote audits (SSH) (/app/parametres/?section=connectors).
  2. Click + Add access: profile name, host, port, user.
  3. Choose password or PEM private key (stored encrypted on the server).

On an IP target detail page or from a scan, associate the right profile. You can also create access directly from the target detail page when launching an SSH audit.

Test the connection before a long scan; authentication failure causes the analysis to fail.
