Connector

UrBackup

API credential, entered client by client.

Connects to UrBackup, a free and open-source backup server for Windows/Linux/macOS fleets. Vigicap reads the list of registered clients and the date of their last backup to evaluate the ReCyF objective « Sauvegardes et restauration ». Backup coverage and freshness are a signal, but restore tests are not automatically verified.

Beta

01

What to create in the tool

The access is created in UrBackup, 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

In the UrBackup admin interface: use an existing account (Users) with read rights on client status. UrBackup has no dedicated API token — Vigicap connects with a username/password.

Minimum role

Compte web dédié dont l'éditeur de droits n'accorde que le domaine « status » (sur « all » pour couvrir tous les clients) — consultation du dernier état des clients, sans droit de parcourir ou télécharger les sauvegardes (browse_backups) ni de modifier les réglages (settings).

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.

  • Usernamesecret

    UrBackup account used for authentication (Users in the UrBackup admin interface).

    admin

  • Passwordsecret

    Password for the UrBackup account above.

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. It is marked “Beta” everywhere it appears.
