Identity security training & enablement
Empower your team to own, operate and grow your identity security programme. For organisations that want to reduce external dependency and build lasting in-house Idira expertise.
What we deliver
Tailored programmes for administrators, security operations teams, architects and leaders — covering the platform, the concepts, incident response and strategic planning.
Platform administrator training
Hands-on training for your internal IT and security administrators covering day-to-day operations — safe management, account onboarding, rotation policy configuration, session recording review, health monitoring and break-fix. Delivered on your own platform configuration in a controlled environment.
SOC & security team enablement
Training for SOC and security analysts on privileged session review, PTA and ITDR analytics, alert triage for identity events and incident response. Includes scenario exercises built on real privileged-account attack patterns — credential stuffing, lateral movement, insider misuse.
Architecture & zero trust workshops
Facilitated workshops for security leaders, architects and CISOs on PAM and identity maturity, zero standing privilege design, SCA, SIA and SWS strategy, and identity security roadmap development.
Custom & corporate programmes
Fully bespoke programmes designed around your platform configuration, team skill levels and objectives — curriculum, optional lab per learner, knowledge checks and reference documentation. Any ISPSS module, with or without lab.
Training backed by delivery
Our programmes are delivered by the Guardian and CDE-certified practitioners who design and build these environments — not generic trainers reading slides. You get real-world knowledge from people who have solved the problems your team will encounter.
Day-wise programmes
Basic to advanced, two to eight hours a day, scheduled in your time zone. Lab per learner optional; quotes for both.
PAM Foundation
For engineers new to Idira (formerly CyberArk) who need to operate a deployment confidently.

Programmes align to the vendor certification tracks, with question drills and exam strategy built into the final days.
Defender
Covered by PAM Foundation. Component knowledge, safes and platforms, onboarding, rotation and session management, with practice questions from day eight.
Sentry
Covered by PAM Advanced. HA and DR, plugin development, PTA, integrations, upgrades and the troubleshooting method examiners look for.
CDE tracks
ISPSS and Cloud covers Privilege Cloud, SCA, SIA, SWS and EPM — the module knowledge behind the Certified Delivery Engineer credentials.
Delivered in your time zone
Sessions run two to eight hours a day. You choose the daily load and the window; we schedule around your delivery calendar.
India — IST
Full-day or half-day blocks, weekday or weekend cohorts, on-site in Hyderabad or remote nationwide.
EMEA
Afternoon IST sessions give a full overlap with European business hours, remote or on-site by arrangement.
North America
Evening IST slots cover US mornings. Corporate batches can run in a compressed format to reduce the time-zone load.

Have questions? Let's talk.
Are the classes live or recorded?
Every session is live and instructor-led. Recordings go to enrolled learners for revision, but the teaching is always live so questions get answered in the room.
Do I get my own lab environment?
Yes on the lab-based programmes — an isolated vault, connector servers and target systems per learner, live for the programme and two weeks after. Training without a lab is available where that suits better.
Which certifications does this prepare me for?
Foundation aligns to Defender, Advanced to Sentry, and the ISPSS programme covers the newer module tracks. We include question drills, but the focus is competence rather than exam technique.
Can you train our team on our own environment?
Yes. Corporate batches are scoped to your estate and can be mirrored on your topology and versions.
What time zones do you deliver in?
Two to eight hours a day, scheduled in your time zone — India, EMEA or US hours, remote or on-site.
How is pricing structured?
Per seat for open cohorts, per batch for corporate programmes, with and without lab. Send the module list and team size for a scoped quote.
Sound familiar?
The situations that start most of our engagements — in the words we hear them.
