Discovery
A "Discovery," as performed by AppDetectivePro for IBM DB2 on the Mainframe is a systematic approach to searching
your network for database and database components. An AppDetectivePro for IBM DB2 on the Mainframe discovery
consists of entering a range of IP addresses from which it will locate and
inventory all the database components within that range. As a result of the
Discovery, version numbers and names of each discovered component is also
provided.
Security Audit
A Security Audit is an in-depth examination of the internal configurations
and potential security holes within a database. In comparison to a Pen
Test, a Security Audit takes the "inside-out" approach to security.
Security audits require access to the database as a valid user to verify
internal configuration settings. A security audit also examines how an
unauthorized user can obtain elevated privileges or circumvent security
controls and mechanisms of a database from the inside. AppDetectivePro for IBM DB2 on the Mainframe can be
enabled to automatically perform a Security Audit if the appropriate access
is obtained through a Pen Test.
