Connector

OVHcloud

API credential, entered client by client.

European host. Vigicap reads whether the client's OVHcloud account is protected by an active second factor (TOTP or SMS), to assess the ReCyF objective on multi-factor authentication. That account can delete the whole hosted estate. A factor declared but never confirmed is not counted as active, and the phone number behind an SMS factor is never read.

01

What to create in the tool

The access is created in OVHcloud, 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

Rendez-vous sur https://eu.api.ovh.com/createToken/ en étant connecté au compte du client : renseignez une description, choisissez « Illimité » pour la validité, et n'autorisez que les routes GET listées ci-dessus. Vous obtiendrez trois valeurs — Application Key, Application Secret et Consumer Key — à reporter ici. Laissez l'URL vide pour l'endpoint européen.

Minimum role

Créez une application sur https://eu.api.ovh.com/createToken/ en n'autorisant QUE les routes en lecture dont ce connecteur a besoin : GET /me, GET /me/accessRestriction/totp, GET /me/accessRestriction/totp/*, GET /me/accessRestriction/sms et GET /me/accessRestriction/sms/*. N'accordez aucune route en écriture et surtout pas GET /* : la clé de consommateur porte exactement les droits que vous cochez à sa création, et c'est là que se joue le moindre privilège.

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.

  • Application Key

    Identifiant public de l'application créée sur createToken.

  • Application Secretsecret

    Secret de l'application. À traiter comme un mot de passe.

  • Consumer Keysecret

    Clé liant l'application au compte du client, portant les droits cochés à sa création.

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 was written from the vendor's documented API and has not yet been run against a real instance.
