PAM Update: adds sensitive data sharing using destructible anonymous links and adds file encryption of saved session recordings and transferred files

This update adds the option to share records or sensitive messages outside of the system using destructible anonymous links and adds support for file encryption of saved session recordings and transferred files.

Added sensitive data sharing option using destructible anonymous links

Generating Anonymous Links within PAM allows a user (“author”) to securely share messages or record details with others without requiring them to sign in to PAM making it possible to share information with guests.

Anonymous Link URLs are generated with a unique, random 32 character ID string and can be opened by anyone who has the link until the link’s expiration policy has been met.

Once this expiration policy is satisfied, the content of the Anonymous Link is permanently destroyed.

Added support for file encryption of saved session recordings and transferred files

PAM stores session video recordings as well as logged files transferred during active sessions on the file system or inside the database.

This direct access to these files has to be restricted to the privileged personnel as a part of the system hardening procedure.

This new PAM update takes one more step further in protecting this content by allowing to enable file encryption so these files will be encrypted at rest.

The option is enabled by system parameter: Storage / Encrypt Content
