01Traditional PAM architecture, safes and accountable access
Traditional CyberArk PAM terminology distinguishes the Digital Vault, web-access functions, password-management services and privileged-session services. Current official product links can use newer Idira branding; that does not establish that every historical component layout is mandatory for every deployment.

A privileged-session service can initiate and supervise an authorized connection to a target account without displaying the credential to the ordinary user. In traditional CyberArk terms, PSM refers to session management, CPM to credential management andPVWAto a web-access interface.
454 words, about 2 min03Endpoint privilege, application rules and controlled deployment
Endpoint privilege management governs what an application or user may do on a managed device. Removing unnecessary standing administrator rights can reduce exposure while an approved task receives the privilege it actually needs.
463 words, about 2 min04Identity, access and cryptographic protection
This domain tests the identity lifecycle and the mechanisms that turn an identity into an authorised action. Expect questions that separate authentication from authorisation and that ask which access control model fits a scenario.
857 words, about 4 min05Security operations, monitoring and response
This domain is about running security as a repeatable service rather than a series of heroic acts. Questions target process ownership, change control and the operational metrics that show the programme is working.
803 words, about 4 min06Continuity, backup and technical recovery
This domain tests continuity planning: how an organisation keeps critical services running during disruption and how it recovers afterwards. Distinguish the continuity plan from the disaster recovery plan and know the time-based metrics precisely.
730 words, about 4 min07Cyber-risk identification and analysis
IT risk assessment has three phases. Identification builds the inventory: assets, processes, data flows, threats, vulnerabilities, and existing controls, often through risk scenarios ("who or what could exploit which vulnerability, and with what consequence?").
