Managing Application-to-Application Password Management (AAPM) Accounts

Applications, programs, or scripts log in with the credentials of target systems, databases, etc., just like real people do. The passwords that the client applications use are stored in databases, configuration files, etc. This makes the target systems vulnerable if the client application is hacked or compromised in anyway, causing the passwords to be accessed and used to attack the target systems.

In order to prevent this, target system passwords can be managed by SAPM, and client applications can retrieve SAPM account passwords using AAPM Rest API.
