What is the primary characteristic of a server that is isolated in a CyberArk environment?

The primary characteristic of a server that is isolated in a CyberArk environment is that it has no domain memberships or trusts, and it does not utilize DNS or WINS. This isolation is a fundamental security measure designed to minimize the attack surface and protect sensitive data and credentials managed by CyberArk.

By not belonging to any domains or trusts, the server is effectively cut off from external authentication mechanisms, which helps prevent unauthorized access. The absence of DNS or WINS ensures that the server does not resolve addresses or communicate with potentially insecure networks, further strengthening its security posture. This level of isolation is crucial for environments that require stringent controls over privileged access to reduce risks associated with lateral movement and exploitation of vulnerabilities.

In contrast, other options imply connections to broader networks or dependencies on external services, which are contrary to the concept of isolation within CyberArk’s security framework. This isolation is vital for maintaining a secure environment where sensitive operations can occur without interference from outside factors.
