Abstract

A security application (164) manages security and reliability of networked applications executing collection of interacting computing elements within a distributed computing architecture (110). The security application (164)monitors various classes of resources utilized by the collection of nodes (102) within the distributed computing architecture (110) and determine whether utilization of a class of resources is approaching a pre-determined maximum limit (314). The security application (164) performs a vulnerability scan of a networked application (402) to determine whether the networked application is prone to a risk of intentional or inadvertent breach by an external application. The security application (164) scans a distributed computing architecture (110) for the existence of access control lists, ACLs (502), and stores ACL configurations and configuration changes in a database. The security application (164) scans a distributed computing architecture (110) for the existence of security certificates (602), places newly discovered security certificates in a database, and deletes outdated security certificates. Advantageously, security and reliability are improved in a distributed computing architecture (110).
