QuestionQ52

CyberArk Identity Security solution

The Privileged Access Management solution includes an out-of-the-box target platform for managing SSH keys, named UNIX Via SSH Keys.

How are these keys managed?

  • A CyberArk stores Private keys in the Vault and updates Public keys on target systems.
  • B CyberArk stores Public keys in the Vault and updates Private keys on target systems.
  • C CyberArk does not store Public or Private keys and instead uses a reconcile account to create keys on demand
  • D CyberArk stores both Private and Public keys and can update target systems with either key.
Explanation

CyberArk protects the private SSH key in the Vault and updates the corresponding public key on target systems so that the stored private key can authenticate to those targets. The CyberArk documentation identifies Unix via SSH Keys as a supported target account platform for private SSH key management.
