CA Compliance Manager provides comprehensive compliance management, analysis, and reporting, and is comprised of multiple, discrete components. Some of these components collect and process information about external security manager (ESM) security events. Other components seamlessly monitor your system in real time for changes to critical resources—security records, security configuration options, system data sets, and z/OS configuration controls. In addition, through sophisticated data gathering and data warehousing processes, CA Compliance Manager provides detailed and advanced compliance reporting on all data that it collects.
An instance of CA Compliance Manager exists on each z/OS LPAR that is being monitored. Each instance of CA Compliance Manager has a set of repositories that are defined to CA Datacom/AD or DB2. The repositories contain the information about security events and changes to critical system resources on that LPAR.
CA Chorus for Security and Compliance Management leverages the information from the CA Compliance Manager repositories on each system to provide security event information to the CA Chorus security discipline user.
CA Chorus can access information from multiple instances of CA Compliance Manager. When each instance of CA Compliance Manager is established, CA Chorus can be configured to access the information in that CA Compliance Manager Warehouse or Data Mart repository.
Note: Implementation of CA Compliance Manager is documented in the CA Compliance Manager for z/OS Implementation Guide. Use that guide as the principal reference in the implementation of CA Compliance Manager.
