CyberArk Defender – Endpoint Privilege Manager — Question 63

If an EPM agent loses connectivity to the EPM SaaS, what will occur?

Answer options

• A. The EPM agent continues to apply policies based on the last policies retrieved
• B. The EPM agent automatically disables its agent self-defense
• C. The EPM SaaS attempts to redeploy the agent to the endpoint.
• D. The EPM SaaS redirects the EPM agent to an available EPM SaaS region

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the EPM agent retains the last set of policies it retrieved and continues to enforce them even without connectivity. Option B is incorrect as the agent does not disable self-defense automatically during a connectivity loss. Option C is also wrong since the EPM SaaS does not attempt to redeploy the agent under these circumstances, and option D is incorrect because the EPM agent does not get redirected to a different region when connectivity is lost.
