Secure mobile access

This page contains best practices for keeping Zabbix mobile app and Zabbix bridge adapter secure.

Remove lost or compromised devices

If a device with Zabbix mobile app on it has been lost or compromised, remove the device in the Zabbix web interface:

• Users > Devices (as Super admin, remove your own or other user mobile devices; requires the Manage user devices permission)
• User settings > Devices (as any user, remove your own mobile devices; requires the Manage own devices permission)

When you remove a device, its access credentials are revoked and removed from Zabbix, after which it can no longer access Zabbix.

Protect Zabbix bridge adapter data

Zabbix bridge adapter stores its data (state file and encryption keys) in the directory specified in the DataDir parameter of Zabbix bridge adapter configuration file. Make sure that the directory has 0700 permissions, and all files stored in it have 0600 permissions.
