CyberArk Sentry – Privileged Access Management — Question 127

When managing SSH keys, the Central Policy Manager (CPM) stores the Public Key ________________.

Answer options

• A. In the Vault
• B. On the target server
• C. In the Vault and on the target server
• D. Nowhere because the public key can always be generated from the private key

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the Central Policy Manager (CPM) specifically stores the Public Key on the target server to facilitate secure access. Option A is incorrect as it suggests the Public Key is only in the Vault, which is not the case. Option C incorrectly implies that both locations are used, while option D is wrong because the public key is not generated from the private key but is a separate key that can be shared.
