SailPoint Exam IdentityNow-Engineer Topic 2 Question 6 Discussion

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.
