What port should be open to communicate enable communication between ServiceNow and CyberArk?

How frequent can we run Discovery on CyberArk( like how many times a day or after how many hours)?

How long does it take to run Discovery on CyberArk (let's say we have credentials stored between 5k- 10k)?

How can we enhance the performance of CyberArk discovery?

How CyberArk team can help to enhance the performance of Discovery?

Hello



ServiceNow MID server uses HTTPS to access CyberArk. Please see the diagram: External credential storage architecture



The maximum frequency would depend on your resources for the MID server, CyberArk and your network. I would recommend you to test this with a test system if you need to run discovery jobs more frequent than every hour.



The duration of the discovery jobs would also depend on your resources.



In order to enhance the performance, you may want to dedicate a CyberArk web access server to the discovery jobs but this is only theoretical. I would recommend that you run some tests first. Normally both the MID server and CAWA are very efficient and it is unlikely you will need a dedicated server.

I have a question regarding Event Management.


What should be the size of MID Server for Event Management if we have like 500 or 100 or 1600 alerts flowing per minute?
