Are you a CyberArk expert with strong Privileged Access Management (PAM) troubleshooting and maintenance experience—not just admin-level exposure?
We are looking for a hands-on CyberArk PAM Support Engineer who can manage real-time issues, support live environments, and bring proven expertise in securing and maintaining privileged access systems.
What We’re Looking For:
- Strong expertise in CyberArk components (PVWA, CPM, PSM, Vault, etc.)
- Solid experience in PAM support and troubleshooting
- Ability to work independently and resolve technical issues efficiently
- CyberArk certification (Defender/Sentry) is a plus
Location: India
Email: [email protected]
You Should Know:
1. Essential CyberArk Commands & Troubleshooting
- Check CyberArk Services Status:
systemctl status cyberark
- Restart PVWA (Password Vault Web Access):
systemctl restart pvwa
- Verify CPM (Central Policy Manager) Logs:
tail -f /var/log/cyberark/cpm.log
- Check Vault Connectivity:
telnet <vault_IP> 1858
2. Key PAM Security Practices
- Rotate Passwords via CyberArk:
Get-PASAccount -Search "AdminAccount" | Start-PASCPMOperation -Operation Change
- Audit Privileged Sessions:
grep "PSM Session" /var/log/cyberark/psm.log
- Backup CyberArk Vault (Windows):
Backup-Vault -Path "C:\Backups\Vault_$(Get-Date -Format 'yyyyMMdd').bak"
3. Linux Privilege Escalation Checks (Defensive)
- Find SUID Binaries:
find / -perm -4000 2>/dev/null
- Check Sudoers File:
sudo cat /etc/sudoers
- Audit Cron Jobs:
crontab -l ls -la /etc/cron.
4. Windows PAM Hardening
- Enable LSA Protection (Mitigate Mimikatz):
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa" /v RunAsPPL /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
- Disable WDigest (Prevent Plaintext Creds):
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\WDigest" /v UseLogonCredential /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
What Undercode Say:
CyberArk PAM is critical for securing privileged accounts. Engineers must master log analysis, service management, and OS-level hardening. Regular audits, password rotations, and session monitoring are non-negotiable. Automation (e.g., CPM policies) reduces human error, while Linux/Windows command-line expertise ensures rapid incident response.
Expected Output:
CyberArk PAM Support Engineer role requires deep troubleshooting skills, certification advantage, and hands-on experience with vault management, log analysis, and OS security hardening.
