Discover CyberArk architecture and its core components—Vault, Central Policy Manager, Privileged Session Manager, and Privilege Threat Analytics—and how they securely store credentials, rotate passwords, and monitor sessions.
Discover how PV (password vault web access) serves as the Cyber Ark Pass platform's web front end, enabling credential retrieval, privileged sessions, approvals, and audit trails through PWA.
Discover how the session manager proxies privileged access, hides credentials from the vault, records sessions, and enables live monitoring and command filtering for SSH and RDP.
Plan CyberArk CDE deployments by aligning cross-functional stakeholders across IT infrastructure, security, app owners, and PMs; assess capacity, environment prerequisites, and high availability, then map a milestone-driven project timeline.
Assess risks to privileged accounts in CyberArk CDE, identify threats and vulnerabilities, and design mitigation controls with least privilege, session recording, and audits.
Map cyberark to centralized directory authentication using Active Directory or LDAP, leveraging AD groups to assign roles, enforce policies, and streamline onboarding, access control, and audits.
Understand why authentication acts as the first gate in CyberArk privileged access management and compare ldap, saml, and radius for use with enterprise identity providers.
Audit and monitor privileged accounts with CyberArk to create a non-repudiable trail. Gain real-time visibility with event logging, PSM session recordings, and alerts for compliance.
Learn how CyberArk enforces least-privilege access, monitors privileged sessions, and maintains auditable controls to support PCI, HIPAA, and ISO/IEC 27001 compliance.
