Introduction to CyberArk and Privileged Access Management (PAM) provides a foundational understanding of how organizations secure sensitive systems by controlling and monitoring privileged access. Privileged accounts, such as administrator and root users, have elevated permissions and are primary targets for cyber threats. This course explains the core principles of PAM and demonstrates how CyberArk helps secure privileged credentials, manage access policies, monitor sessions, and reduce insider and external security risks. You will gain a clear understanding of CyberArk architecture, its key components, and how privileged account security supports compliance and operational stability in modern IT environments.
By the end of this course, you will understand the fundamentals of Privileged Access Management (PAM), CyberArk’s core architecture and components, privileged account security, session monitoring, and basic security and compliance concepts.
