Dell iDRAC Service Module Security Configuration Guide

Securing credentials

It is recommended to install iSM on the file system that is accessible only by the system administrator. iSM stores the certificates in the native store of the operating system on the Microsoft Windows operating system. On other operating systems, the certificates are stored in the file system area that is restricted to only administrator users. The credentials that are created for creating an iDRAC local user are stored in iDRAC. Example: ismtech utility.
