Course Overview

The CyberArk CPM Plugin & PSM Connector Development course is a specialized technical training program designed for developers and engineers responsible for extending the capabilities of CyberArk’s Privileged Access Management (PAM) platform. This course prepares learners for the CyberArk CPM Plugin and PSM Connector Development certification, equipping them with the skills to create custom integrations for privileged account automation and session management. Targeted at roles such as CyberArk Developers, PAM Engineers, and Identity & Access Management Specialists, the training addresses a growing industry need—over 70% of Fortune 500 companies now use CyberArk to secure privileged access, driving demand for professionals skilled in plugin and connector development. Participants will gain hands-on experience in building solutions that support secure credential rotation, session isolation, and compliance automation across heterogeneous environments.

This course dives deep into key CyberArk technologies including the Plugin Generator Utility (PGU), Central Policy Manager (CPM), Privileged Session Manager (PSM), PVWA (Privileged Web Access), and AutoIT scripting for thick client automation. Students will work within a lab environment that mirrors real-world PAM deployments, where they configure and deploy custom CPM plugins for web and terminal-based applications and develop PSM connection components for Windows and web platforms. A core hands-on project involves recording and generating a PSM Web Connector using the PGU, debugging it through the TPC engine, and integrating it into the CyberArk vault via PVWA. Learners will also explore dynamic parameter handling, session troubleshooting, and reconciliation workflows, ensuring they can deliver robust, production-ready connectors that meet enterprise security standards.

By completing the CyberArk CPM Plugin & PSM Connector Development course, participants are fully prepared for the official certification, which is recognized as a benchmark for PAM integration expertise in the cybersecurity industry. Certified professionals report an average salary increase of 20-25%, with CyberArk Engineers in North America earning up to $180,000 annually. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning journey with Guaranteed-to-Run batches, official CyberArk courseware, and access to 1-on-1 training options, ensuring personalized attention and mastery of complex development scenarios. Graduates will be positioned to lead secure automation initiatives, drive PAM platform extensibility, and advance into senior roles such as PAM Architect or CyberArk Engineering Lead.
