Architecture: Aurora Focus


The components of the CylanceOPTICS solution: the management console, cloud services, and devices with the CylanceOPTICS agent.

Component

Description

Aurora Focus cloud services

The Aurora Focus agent sends the device data that it collects to the Aurora Focus cloud services. The data is aggregated and stored in the secure Aurora Focus cloud database. The Aurora Focus data analytics services offer rich interpretations of device data that you can access using the management console.

For devices with the Aurora Focus agent version 2.x and earlier, the Aurora Focus database is stored locally on the device. Version 3.0 and later automatically aggregates, stores, compresses, and sends the data to the Aurora Focus cloud database at regular intervals.

Management console

The cloud-based management console allows you to manage Aurora Focus agents installed on devices, query Aurora Focus data to investigate security incidents, customize what Aurora Focus monitors and how it responds to events, and execute actions in response to threats.

Devices with the Aurora Focus agent

You install the Aurora Focus agent on Windows, macOS, and Linux devices. The agent deploys sensors to the device OS to monitor and collect data that is used to identify threats and trigger automated responses.
