VigicapConnector
Cert Spotter
API credential, entered client by client.
Monitoring of the public Certificate Transparency logs. Vigicap queries the client's domain and reads how many public DNS names a certificate covers, how many expire within 30 days and how many already have. It is the only source that observes a client's exposed surface from outside, querying nothing they run — which is how it surfaces forgotten subdomains. This connector proposes no ReCyF level: a public certificate attests that a name was published, not that an asset exists.
01
What to create in the tool
The access is created in Cert Spotter, 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
Créez un jeton sur https://sslmate.com/account/api_credentials (une offre gratuite existe, avec un quota de requêtes). Saisissez le domaine racine du client : les sous-domaines sont inclus automatiquement.
Minimum role
Un jeton d'API Cert Spotter en lecture (SSLMate > API keys). Ce connecteur n'appelle que GET /v1/issuances. Aucun accès au système du client n'est nécessaire : les journaux de transparence des certificats sont publics, et le jeton ne sert qu'à interroger SSLMate.
Taken from the vendor's own role model, and checked before publication.
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.

- Domaine du client
Domaine racine ; les sous-domaines sont inclus automatiquement.

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
This connector feeds no ReCyF objective, and that is not a gap: it does not measure a client's posture.
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 was written from the vendor's documented API and has not yet been run against a real instance.
