AppSentry is simple and quick to use. The initial steps are to configure a policy using the Policy Editor and to define the Oracle Application Server configuration using the Configuration Editor. With a Policy and Configuration defined, the scan is started and the results are displayed in the Scan Window. Detailed reports can be generated using the Results Window and are viewed in the Report Viewer. Reports can be viewed on-line, printed, or exported to many different formats (PDF, RTF, HTML, Excel, Word, CSV, Text, or XML).

AppSentry has over 50 reports available from vulnerability detail to audit information of the database, application server, and applications.

The AppSentry Client is a Windows program that can reside on any network connected PC. The AppSentry Scanner is a Java server, which runs either on the AppSentry Client or can be distributed to any server capable of running Java 1.4.

No AppSentry software or agents reside on any of the Oracle Applications servers.
