Purpose and Objectives

This document serves as the definitive reference for hardware configurations supporting the Kron PAM solution. It lays out the necessary prerequisites, including operating system versions and resource allocation guidelines, ensuring consistency and performance across various deployment scales.

By detailing specifications for modules such as the Session Manager and Password Vault, this document aims to provide a system design that delivers optimal performance when managing multiple concurrent sessions and large-scale password repositories.

The specifications provided herein address both small-scale implementations—as exemplified by lower concurrent session and resource tiers—and larger, enterprise-grade deployments. This ensures that Kron PAM can be adapted to meet growth requirements or heightened security demands over time.

Alongside core components, the document covers peripheral modules that enhance the functionality of Kron PAM, particularly the Session Manager, which supports a range of protocols including SSH/Telnet, RDP/VNC, SFTP, and HTTPS. This multi-protocol support is critical for organizations with diverse and distributed IT environments.
