[All IdentityNow-Engineer Questions]

Is this statement correct about security and/or encryption of data?

Solution: When setting up a virtual appliance cluster. SailPoint creates an asymmetnc key pair based on a user-provided passphrase. and then uses this key pair to communication with the IdentityNow tenant.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Yes, this statement is correct. When setting up a Virtual Appliance (VA) cluster, SailPoint does indeed create an asymmetric key pair based on a user-provided passphrase. This key pair is used for secure communication between the Virtual Appliance and the IdentityNow tenant. The asymmetric encryption model uses a public-private key pair where the private key is stored securely within the VA, and the public key is shared with the IdentityNow tenant to establish a secure, encrypted communication channel. This setup ensures that data exchanged between the VA and the IdentityNow tenant remains protected.

I'm going with A on this one. Can't be too careful when it comes to encryption, you know? *winks*

Wait, does this mean they're storing the passphrase somewhere? That's a security risk, isn't it?

Sounds legit to me. Asymmetric keys are the way to go for secure communication with the cloud tenant.
