Use case

Access to a critical web system

Primary actor: John (Software engineer at a financial institution.)

Summary: this use case demonstrates how John uses the MySafe Passwords feature to securely access a critical web system and share access with a colleague in a controlled manner.

Basic flow

1. Storing the password: John needs to access a critical system hosted on a website containing the company’s confidential data. He uses MySafe's password generator to create a strong and unique password, which he stores in the digital vault, naming it "System access."
2. Quick and secure access: to access the system, John uses the MySafe browser extension, which automatically fills in his login details on the website. He can also copy and paste the password securely without typing it.
3. Controlled sharing: Phillip, a colleague, needs temporary access to the web system to assist with a specific task. John uses MySafe's password-sharing feature to grant Phillip viewing access to the password.
4. Traceability and control: MySafe logs all actions related to the password, including access dates and times, modifications, and sharing. John can track who accessed the password, when, and for how long, ensuring the security and control of access to the critical system on the website.
5. Security on multiple devices: during a business trip, John needs to access the critical system via the website using his mobile phone. He uses the senhasegura mobile app, integrated with his MySafe vault, to securely access the password.

Benefits

• Enhanced security: MySafe allows John to use strong and unique passwords for each web system without having to memorize them, protecting access to confidential data.
• Secure and controlled sharing: John can securely share passwords with colleagues, defining permissions without compromising the system’s information security.
• Centralized management: MySafe offers a centralized platform to store and manage all passwords, simplifying access and increasing productivity.
• Compliance and auditing: MySafe's logging and tracking features facilitate audits and ensure compliance with the company’s security policies.
