CPC-CDE-RECERT Exam Dumps : CyberArk CDE-CPC Recertification

The tool used to configure the user object for the installation of the PSM for SSH component is CreateCredFile. This tool is responsible for creating a credentials file that stores the necessary user details required during the installation process, ensuring secure and correct authentication.

For customers using CyberArk Privilege Cloud Shared Services, the correct format for the CyberArk Vault address is:

vault-<subdomain>.privilegecloud.cyberark.cloud (Option B). This format is used to access the vault services provided by CyberArk in the cloud environment, where <subdomain> is the unique identifier assigned to the customer’s specific instance of the Privilege Cloud.

In CyberArk Privilege Cloud / PSM deployments, PSM Health Check is implemented as a dedicated PSM Web Service on each PSM node (typically used by a load balancer to query application-level health). (docs.cyberark.com)

Because the Health Check relies on IIS, CyberArk includes PSM Health Check hardening activities as part of the setup. These hardening activities specifically focus on reducing IIS exposure by removing default/unused IIS components (for example, CyberArk documents that the setup deletes IIS application pools such as “Classic .NET AppPool”, “.NET v2.0”, “.NET v4.5”, etc.). This is a hardening action aimed at minimizing IIS attack surface / insecure defaults—i.e., removing IIS settings/configurations that could be considered security vulnerabilities. (docs.cyberark.com)

Why the other options are not the “purpose”:

B: While Health Check is used for load balancer health probing, “hardening” is not about validating readiness for a load balancer; it’s about tightening IIS-related configuration. (docs.cyberark.com)

C: Service-running checks are part of health determination, but the hardening step is described in docs in terms of IIS hardening activities (like deleting app pools), not just confirming services. (docs.cyberark.com)

D: AppLocker is part of PSM hardening overall, but it’s not the purpose of PSM Health Check hardening (which is IIS-focused). (docs.cyberark.com)
