Working knowledge of Configuration Management (CM) tools and Web Services implementation.
Credential Management System is a suite of services, libraries, plugins/modules, and tools that implement identity roles, authentication, and authorization management both programmatically and through standard OS interfaces. The USG’s capability could have thousands of credential checks per minute depending on how pervasively the system services check for permissions, so the CMS may have multiple tiers of credential strength or permissioned surface exposure, e.g., prevent lose due to typos, accidental spills, authority escalation, and intrusion, et
