Product Overview

Top Secret's architecture comprises several key components, including the security server, access control database, and monitoring agents. The security server enforces access control policies and manages user authentication. The access control database stores user permissions and access rights.

Monitoring agents collect security events and send them to the security server for analysis. Data flow involves user authentication, access request evaluation, and event logging. Deployment topology typically involves installing the security server on a dedicated mainframe partition and deploying monitoring agents on all systems that need to be protected.

Integration patterns include connecting Top Secret to SIEM systems for centralized monitoring and integrating with identity management platforms for user provisioning. The system components work together to provide a comprehensive security solution that protects sensitive data and ensures regulatory compliance. Proper configuration and maintenance are essential for optimal performance and security.
