Actual exam question for SailPoint's IdentityNow-Engineer exam
Question #: 4
Topic #: 5
[All IdentityNow-Engineer Questions]

Is this an item that an IdentityNow engineer should configure when implementing a source that uses a JDBC connector?

Solution: Select the checkbox to use database admin as service account.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

No, selecting a checkbox to use the database admin as the service account is not a recommended or required configuration when implementing a source that uses a JDBC connector. Typically, for security and least privilege, a dedicated service account with only the necessary permissions to read and manage identities within the database is used. Granting database administrator (DBA) privileges to the service account introduces unnecessary security risks and is against best practices.

Ah, the age-old debate of security vs. convenience. I say, let's go for the database admin account and worry about the consequences later. YOLO!

Whoa, hold on! Using a database admin account is like giving the keys to the kingdom. Let's find a more secure solution, shall we?

What kind of a question is this? Of course, we need to use the database admin account - it's the only way to ensure the JDBC connector has all the necessary permissions!

No way, using a database admin account is a security risk. I'd opt for a dedicated service account with limited privileges.
