Once the data is integrated into the PC or network server database, there are several
ways to make enquiries of the data. Some of these methods are automated. Others
allow you to query the data and build your own rules.
Data Discovery Queries
Data Discovery Queries are SQL queries built by the user using an easy interface that
allows the query to be built using drop-down lists for items to be queried and values to
query for.
System Policy
System policies are queries that are designed to be checked every time the relevant
dataset is loaded. Entries are tracked with a history of work and the ability to enter
notes.
Best Practices
Best Practices document a single characteristic of a single object, comparing it to the
expected value. The expected values are built from the Best Practices defined in:
HP NonStop Server Security: A Practical Handbook
(ISBN: 978-1-55558-314-9)
Securing HP NonStop Servers in an Open Systems World: TCP/IP, OSS & SQL
(ISBN: 978-1-55558-344-6)
Integrity Checks
Integrity Checks match a baseline of files and/or characteristics of files or objects that
meet a pattern to the characteristics of those items from the previous collection of
Integrity data. Additions, deletions and changes of the items from one collection to the
next are documented.
XYGATE Product Integrity
The XYGATE Product set of queries matches the characteristics of the xxCONF and
xxACL file for each XYGATE Security solution module in use to the values that those
files had during the previous execution, highlighting differences in the files from one
data collection to the next.
Access Analysis Mapping
Access mapping provides a way to discover which users can do what to which files
based on Guardian, OSS, Safeguard, XAC and XOS implementations.
PCI/HIPAA/SOX Alternate Mapping
Regulation-based mapping for the System Policies, Integrity Checks, and Best
Practices have been created, so that it is easy to print reports for these governmental
and industry requirements.
