Enterprise Security Administrator (ESA)

Protegrity Data Security Platform provides policy management and data protection. It has as its main component the ESA. Working in combination with a Protegrity database protector, application protector, file protector, or big data protector it can be used for managing data security policy, key management, and auditing and reporting.

• ESA: The ESA Manager provides information on how to install specific components, work with policy management tools, manage keys and key rotation and manage switching between Soft HSM and Key Store, configuring logging repositories and using logging tools. This document contains details for all these features.
• Audit Store: The Audit Store is a repository for the logs generated from multiple sources, such as the kernel, policy management, member source, application logs, and protectors. The Audit Store supports clustering for scalability.
• Insight: This feature displays forensics from the Audit Store on the Audit Store Dashboards. It provides options to query and display data from the Audit Store. Predefined graphs are available for analyzing the data from the Audit Store. It provides options for generating and saving customized queries and reports. An enhanced alerting system tracks the data in the Audit Store to monitor the systems and alert users if required.
• Data Security Gateway: The Data Security Gateway (DSG) is a network intermediary that can be classified under Cloud Access Security Brokers (CASB) and Cloud Data Protection Gateway (CDPG). CASBs provide security administrators a central check point to ensure secure and compliant use of cloud services across multiple cloud providers. CDPG is a security policy enforcement check point that exists between cloud data consumer and cloud service provider to interject enterprise policies whenever the cloud-based resources are accessed.
