Article summary

The CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault integration enables Axonius to securely pull privileged credentials from CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault. The integration helps to ensure that privileged credentials are secured in CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault, rotated to meet company guidelines, and meet complexity requirements.

Description of Product Integration

Axonius uses the CyberArk Privilege Cloud API to fetch credentials from CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault.

The credentials are only fetched by Axonius when:

  • Creating a new adapter connection
  • Updating an existing adapter connection
  • Running an enforcement set
  • Fetching asset information for adapters during discovery cycles

Axonius does not store the credentials anywhere and deletes any trace of credentials.


To enable fetching credentials from your CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault, you need to:

  1. Install and configure CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault
  2. Configure login using CyberArk
  3. Have 'read' permissions for the passwords.
  4. Enable and configure the External Password Managers - Enterprise Password Management Settings in Axonius.
  5. Configure adapter connection credentials to fetch passwords from CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault.

Enable CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault Integration

Working with CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault

Once the CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault integration is enabled in Axonius, a new CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault icon will appear in all password fields when configuring adapters or configuring Enforcement sets, allowing you to enter a password manually or to fetch the secret from CyberArk Privilege Cloud Vault.
