How are the credentials saved on ControlUp Scoutbees for a published App/Desktop scout?

Credentials for Apps/Desktops on Scoutbees are encrypted either in a database or with AWS-vault, depending on whether the Scout is running on a cloud hive or a custom hive. When configuring a custom hive, the credentials are stored only locally in a file. For further information see https://controlupcommunity.slack.com/archives/C046DUGB6M9/p1668549692870029.

How are the credentials saved on scoutbees web site for a published App/Desktop scout? Crypted in a database? AWS-vault?

I am pretty sure I heard or read it somewhere before but I cannot recall.

Maybe it was during our meeting in Israel @member!?

@member already asked something similar here https://controlupcommunity.slack.com/archives/C046DUGB6M9/p1668549692870029

Scouts that are running on cloud hives – password is encrypted with AWS KMS.

Scouts that are running on custom hives – passwords are saved inside encrypted local db

Thanks man.

So when configuring a custom hive the creds will not get stored in Cloud? This local db is part of the custom hive install?

@member I believe that custom hive credentials are only stored locally in this file. @member can you confirm?

Indeed, the credentials of scouts running from a custom hives never leaving the custom hive, they are saved only inside the encrypted local db (ls.db)
