What type of keys does the Master CD include?

The Master CD is a crucial component of the CyberArk Privileged Access Security solution, as it includes essential cryptographic keys used for various secure operations. The inclusion of the server key, recovery public key, and recovery private key ensures that the system can manage secure sessions, encryption, and recovery processes effectively.

The server key is utilized to encrypt the sensitive data handled by CyberArk, maintaining the confidentiality and integrity of stored credentials. The recovery public key allows for secure recovery operations, enabling administrators to regain access to the vault in the event of a failure or emergency. Coupling this with the recovery private key ensures that the retrieval of secure information is controlled and protected.

Having all three types of keys on the Master CD enhances security and redundancy, providing administrators with the necessary tools to maintain effective management over privileged access while ensuring that robust measures are in place for data recovery when needed. This comprehensive approach underscores the importance of key management in CyberArk’s architecture.
