  • See active permissions
  • Request and endorse on-demand resources and policies
  • Connect to RDP, SSH, and HTTP/S resources
  • Access the secret vault
  • Run database commands in the Web SQL editor

Additionally administrators can

  • Configure the Mamori server
  • View logs
  • View monitoring dashboards

For remote access to the Mamori web console

  • Open tcp port 443 on your Mamori server's firewall
  • Forward tcp port 443 from your public firewall to the Mamori server
