Given some of the discussion around the architecture and collection capabilities potentially being off-endpoint, I was wondering if we need to update the Posture Collection Manager (PCM) and Posture Collection Engine (PCE) components on the Posture Manager (PM) and the Endpoint in the architecture diagram.

A couple of options include:

  1.  Remove the Posture Collection Manager and Posture Collection Engine from the Posture Manager and Endpoint components in the architecture diagram

  1.  Leave the architecture diagram as-is and note in the Posture Collection Manager and Posture Collection Engine definitions that they are not required to be on the Posture Manager and Endpoint

  1.  Make no changes to the draft because the Components section says vendors are free to implement components and interfaces in a way that makes the most sense for them

I am inclined to leave it as-is (option 3), but, wanted to get others’ feedback.

Thanks,

Danny
