## [Store Credentials](#store-credentials)
If you have Java Management Extensions **(JMX)** or `HTTP` authentication enabled on
your containerized **JVMs**, **Cryostat** will prompt you to enter your credentials
before it can access the **JDK** `Flight Recordings` on your `target` **JVMs**. You can
<a href="#configure-credentials-storage">Configure Credentials Storage</a> and
choose whether these credentials are held in browser memory for the current
session only, or if they are uploaded to **Cryostat's** `Credentials Keyring`. The
following instructions are only applicable to `Credentials Keyring` storage.

**Note**: for the best experience, it is recommended that you should use the
`Backend` **JMX** `Credentials Keyring` and choose a strong `Keyring` password when
deploying the server.
