Introduction:
Managing privileged accounts in complex IT environment is risky due to manual processes, excessive permissions, and limited visibility. This increases security threats, hinders, compliance, and adds administrative burden.
To overcome this problem, CyberArk Transparent User Management addresses these challenges through automation, secure credential gangling and auditing.
CyberArk Transparent User Management automates privileged account provisioning, secure credential management, and access auditing. By integrating with LDAP directories, it streamlines user administration, reduces manual effort, and enhances security. Transparent User Management ensures that access rights remain aligned with roles, minimizing risks from excessive permissions and insider threats.

From the diagram, we can see that users and groups from Active Directory are integrated using LDAP over SSL. After LDAP integration, the users and groups are seamlessly and securely provisioned into CyberArk. These groups from Active Directory are then mapped to predefined groups in CyberArk.
In this blog, we will be discussing about the CyberArk Transparent User Management in detail. The following are the key topics that are discussed as part of the blog.
- Types of users in CyberArk
- Transparent Users and Groups
- Pre-requisites for LDAP Integration
