Built-In Launcher Types

Secret Server launchers, supported by protocol handlers, come in three primary types:

  • Remote Desktop: Launches a Windows Remote Desktop session and automatically authenticates the user to the machine.
  • PuTTY: Opens a PuTTY session and authenticates the user to a Unix system.
  • Web Password Filler: Uses a Chrome extension to automatically log the user into a website with secret credentials.
  • Web Launcher: An alternative method to automatically log on websites. See Web Launchers.
