CyberArk Certification Changed ACCESS-DEF Questions

The CyberArk Identity Windows Device Trust enrollment process allows administrators to specify the maximum number of devices that can be enrolled with a single enrollment code. This is part of the security measures to control the number of devices that can access CyberArk Identity resources. The enrollment process requires a domain-joined Windows computer and a connection to the domain controller, typically within the corporate network or connected through a VPN. References: The information provided here is based on general knowledge of device trust and enrollment processes in identity management solutions, including CyberArk Identity, as of 2021.

The Admin Portal: Applications Dashboard is designed to display the applications launched by users, the application type, and the number of times they were launched. This dashboard provides administrators with a useful summary and graphical representations of CyberArk Identity usage, including the total number of app launches over a specified period, which can be instrumental in monitoring and analyzing user activity patterns within an organization.

• Secure communication between a company's internal network (AD or LDAP) and CyberArk Identity: is a connector function
• Radius Server and Client: is a connector function
• VPN gateway: is not a connector function
• User Behavior Analytics gateway: is not a connector function
• App gateway: is a connector function
• Integrated Windows authentication (IWA): is a connector function
• LDAP proxy: is a connector function
• Firewall: is not a connector function

CyberArk Identity connectors serve as bridges between CyberArk Identity and other components of an organization's IT infrastructure:

• Secure communication with a company's internal directory services like Active Directory (AD) or Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is facilitated by CyberArk Identity connectors to ensure secure user authentication and synchronization.
• Radius Server and Client functionality is often supported by CyberArk Identity connectors to enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) and integrate with various network devices and services.
• VPN gateways are typically separate network devices or services that handle the security for virtual private network traffic and are not managed by CyberArk Identity connectors.
• User Behavior Analytics (UBA) gateways are specialized services for analyzing user activities and detecting potential security threats; they are separate from the standard connector functions.
• App gateways refer to application gateways that manage traffic to web applications, which can be part of CyberArk Identity's connector functionalities for single sign-on (SSO) and secure application access.
• Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) is a secure method for users to sign in to applications that can be facilitated by CyberArk Identity connectors to allow seamless authentication.
• LDAP proxy functionality is within the scope of CyberArk Identity connectors to provide additional security and abstraction layers for LDAP operations.
• Firewall management is beyond the scope of CyberArk Identity connectors as it is a network security system that controls incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules.

The CyberArk Identity App Gateway is designed to work with web-based applications that support standard authentication protocols. This includes:

• SAML-Compliant Apps: These are applications that use the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) protocol for single sign-on (SSO).
• WS-Fed Enabled Apps: These applications use the WS-Federation (WS-Fed) protocol, which is another standard used for SSO.
• OIDC Web Apps: OpenID Connect (OIDC) is a simple identity layer on top of the OAuth 2.0 protocol, and OIDC web apps are those that use this protocol for authentication.

The App Gateway allows secure access to these types of applications without the need for a VPN, facilitating remote access.

References: The information is based on general knowledge of SAML, WS-Fed, and OIDC protocols, and how they are typically used in conjunction with web-based application gateways like CyberArk Identity App Gateway.
