  • Automated infrastructure audit system
    Publication number: 20040249828
    Abstract: The present invention provides an automated method and system for auditing infrastructures in a managed region of a resource management system. A resource management region queries the endpoints in the system, retrieves reference infrastructure configuration data, and stores the data in a database. At a later time, the resource management region again queries the endpoints and the resource management region itself, and retrieves current infrastructure configuration data. Changes in the state of the system infrastructure from the time the reference infrastructure data is generated to the time the current infrastructure data is generated is found by comparing the reference infrastructure data to the current infrastructure data. The resource management region transmits a notification to the system administrator if unauthorized changes are found.
