CyberArk ACCESS-DEF Practice Test Questions Answers

The error message “Not Authorized. You do not have permission to access this feature” typically indicates that a user has attempted to access a feature or area within CyberArk Defender Access for which they do not have the necessary permissions or rights. This is most commonly associated with a non-administrative user trying to access an administrative feature. Administrative rights and permissions in CyberArk are tightly controlled and are assigned based on the role and scope of the user’s responsibilities. Users are only able to perform actions for which they have been explicitly granted permission, and attempting to access features beyond their permission level will result in such an error1.

 Within a Web App connector, the admin uses the Workflow feature to grant users access. Enabling the Workflow feature for an application allows end users to send requests for access to the application to designated users or roles for approval. Approvers can then grant access to the application permanently or for a specified time window. Granting access to the application means the users receive the View, Run, and Automatically Deploy permissions1.

References: The information is based on the CyberArk Defender Access (ACC-DEF) course and learning resources, specifically from the CyberArk documentation on managing application access requests1.

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.

Within the CyberArk Admin Portal under User Security Policies, the Account Unlock options allow administrators to set policies for how users can unlock their accounts:

The option to allow for Active Directory users provides the capability for users who utilize Active Directory as their directory service to unlock their own accounts, often necessary after an account has been locked due to multiple failed login attempts.

The restriction to only allow browsers with an identity cookie helps enhance security by ensuring that account unlock requests come from a browser that has already been recognized by the system, indicating a previous successful login, and thus a lower risk of fraudulent unlock attempts.

Showing a message to users on the desktop login UI that their account is locked is a direct way to inform users who are attempting to log in from their desktops that their account is currently inaccessible and action may be needed on their part.

The message explaining the account unlock experience is a user-friendly notification that informs users who have gone through the unlock process that their sign-in experience was different due to the account having been locked and subsequently unlocked, which can be a reminder of the security processes in place and the importance of maintaining secure login credentials.

The “Provisioning” feature within a Web App connector in CyberArk Identity is used to automate the process of on-boarding and off-boarding users in third-party applications. When this feature is enabled, it allows for the automatic creation, update, and deletion of user accounts in the connected application, based on the user’s status in CyberArk Identity. This ensures that access rights are granted and revoked in a timely manner, which is crucial for maintaining security and compliance within an organization.
