Keycyte PAM 3.2 · User Guide
Connecting to Systems
Keycyte PAM connects you to target systems without showing you the passwords of the target accounts. The connection runs through Keycyte PAM, which applies your roles: which accounts you can use, whether approval or MFA is required, whether the session is recorded, and which tools are available in the session.
You can connect in two ways:
- In the browser — open a server from the Client Panel. Graphical connections (for example RDP and VNC) and terminal connections (SSH, Telnet, Kubernetes) open in a tab. No client software is needed.
- With a native client — connect with your own SSH client through the Keycyte PAM SSH proxy.
