Systems and Methods for Auditing an IT Environment
A system for auditing an enterprise IT environment, including: a multi-tier hierarchy generator configured to generate a multi-tier hierarchy, between and within each tier, maps the enterprise IT environment across a plurality of software applications of different types via which the IT environment is implemented; and an auditing unit configured to check IT environment requirements against the IT environment based on the multi-tier hierarchy.
1 . A system for auditing an enterprise IT environment, the system comprising:
a multi-tier hierarchy generator configured to generate a multi-tier hierarchy, between and within each tier, maps the enterprise IT environment across a plurality of software applications of different types via which the IT environment is implemented; and
an auditing unit configured to check IT environment requirements against the IT environment based on the multi-tier hierarchy.
2 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a parser configured to identify dependencies between and among different tier elements of the enterprise IT environment, and
a dependency mapper configured to build the multi-tier hierarchy from the identified dependencies.
3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the auditing unit identifies gaps by checking whether one or more implementations are: different from the requirements, missing for the requirements, and/or does not correspond to the requirements.
4 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the gaps are associated with one or more tiers of the multi-tier hierarchy.
5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the IT environment is a target IT environment.
6 . A method for auditing an enterprise IT environment, the system comprising:
generating a multi-tier hierarchy that, between and within each tier, maps the enterprise IT environment across a plurality of software applications of different types via which the IT environment is implemented; and
checking IT environment requirements against the IT environment based on the multi-tier hierarchy.
7 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
identifying dependencies between and among different tier elements of the enterprise IT environment, and
building the multi-tier hierarchy from the identified dependencies.
8 . The system of claim 6 , further comprising:
identifying by checking whether one or more implementations are: different from the requirements, missing for the requirements, and/or does not correspond to the requirements.
9 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the gaps are associated with one or more tiers of the multi-tier hierarchy.
10 . The system of claim 6 , wherein the IT environment is a target IT environment.
