The architecture of Vanguard Advisor is centered around three primary components: the Data Collector, the Analysis Engine, and the Reporting Module. The Data Collector is responsible for gathering data from RACF logs and other relevant sources within the z/OS environment. This component extracts and formats the data for analysis.
The Analysis Engine processes the collected data based on predefined rules and configurations. It identifies potential security threats and vulnerabilities. The Reporting Module generates detailed reports that present the findings of the analysis.
These reports can be customized to meet specific requirements. Communication between components occurs through z/OS internal mechanisms. The Data Collector writes data to z/OS datasets, which are then read by the Analysis Engine.
The Analysis Engine stores intermediate results in datasets, and the Reporting Module accesses these datasets to generate reports. There are no external network dependencies. The system uses z/OS security features for authentication and access control.
The tool integrates with z/OS audit and logging facilities, providing detailed audit trails of security-related activities.
