Adding a Vaulted (Privileged) Credential

For Hydden to access and use any of the vaulted data collected, a Vaulted Credential must be configured. Vaulted Credentials in the Hydden Platform are what is known as a Privileged Credential in the CyberArk Platform. The credential configuration is based on a multi-step workflow.
