Connector

AdGuard Home

API credential, entered client by client.

Self-hosted DNS filtering server (AdGuard Home), used by MSPs to block advertising, tracker and malicious domains at the network level. Vigicap reads the filtering status and the volume of blocked DNS queries to evaluate the « web » part of the ReCyF objective « Sécurisation de la messagerie et du web ». Mail security (anti-spam, DMARC/SPF/DKIM) is not covered by this connector, which caps the automatic proposal at level 3.

01

What to create in the tool

The access is created in AdGuard Home, not in Vigicap. Vigicap never asks for an administrator's password: it expects an API credential that you create, that you can see, and that you can revoke without us.

Where to generate it

Use the username and password of the AdGuard Home admin interface (the same credentials you use to sign in to the web interface).

Minimum role

AdGuard Home n'a qu'un compte d'administration (nom + mot de passe) et aucun rôle « lecture seule » : l'identifiant donné ici autorise aussi la modification du filtrage côté AdGuard Home. Réservez-le à Vigicap et n'exposez l'interface d'administration que sur un réseau de confiance.

02

What to enter in Vigicap

The exact fields of the connection form, in the order they appear. Values marked “secret” never travel back to the browser: they are encrypted at rest and deleted on disconnection.

The form starts with the instance address, entered separately from the fields below. The public catalogue does not yet publish whether this connector needs one, or what it looks like — so this list is exact about everything else, and silent about that first field.

  • Usernamesecret

    Sign-in username for the AdGuard Home admin interface.

    admin

  • Passwordsecret

    Sign-in password for the AdGuard Home admin interface.

    Mot de passe AdGuard Home

03

Per-client routing

The connection is made client by client: one credential per client, entered on that client's record. Nothing is shared between two clients, and disconnecting one leaves the other untouched.

04

What it does, and what it does not do

ReCyF objectives it pre-fills

A reading feeds one objective of the ANSSI ReCyF framework. It PROPOSES it: the level only counts once a consultant has confirmed it.

Read-only

The reads are read-only: Vigicap writes nothing into the tool while reading it.

What is read, what is kept, for how long and with which rights: the same register, connector by connector, in the data inventory.

Verification

This connector has been run end to end against a real instance of the tool, not merely tested against a mock.
