Domains

The following table describes all Guardium domains. Your company may have defined additional custom domains.

Access to the query builder for each domain is controlled by security roles, so each user role typically has access to a separate set of domains.

Some domains are available only when optional components are installed (CAS, for example).

On the default admin portal, all query builders can be opened from the menu of the Tools > Report Building tab. On the default user portal, many query builders can be opened from the Custom Reporting application: Monitor/Audit > Build Reports.

Following a short description of the domain, the Description column lists the default security role assigned for each domain, and indicates how to access the domain from the default user portal (if available).
