In one embodiment, a system for managing secure communications includes an interface that may receive communication between a first endpoint and a second endpoint. A processor may identify a security certificate included in the communication and determine whether the identified security certificate has previously been stored in a certificate database. If the security certificate has not been previously stored in a certificate database, the processor may store the identified security certificate in the certificate database. The processor may also analyze parameters of the identified security certificate including a host device using the certificate, a network administrator responsible for the host device, an expiration date of the security certificate, and a certification authority issuing the security certificate.

Identifying and maintaining secure communications

In one embodiment, a system for analyzing and reporting electronic transactions in a network environment includes an interface that may receive a transaction request at a first network device. A processor communicatively coupled to the interface may execute a task associated with the transaction request generate a transaction report associated with the transaction request and the task. The transaction report may include a request identifier, a request field comprising a task identifier and a uniform resource locator (URL) resource name, a time stamp field, a status code field, and a duration field. The interface may communicate the transaction report to a transaction module operable to aggregate the transaction report with one or more additional transaction reports associated with the transaction request using the unique identifier associated with the transaction request.

Transaction identification in a network environment

In one embodiment, a system for troubleshooting transactions in a network environment includes an interface that may receive a transaction report from each of a number of network devices used to process a transaction. Each transaction report may include a status code field indicating a status of the transaction at each of the plurality of network devices. The system may also include a processor communicatively coupled to the interface. The processor may generate a transaction flow report that links each of the received transaction reports associated with the transaction. The processor may determine that the status code field associated with a first one of the plurality of network devices indicates a failed status. The processor may then communicate a status alert message to a network administrator associated with a first one of the plurality of network devices.

Troubleshooting transactions in a network environment

In one embodiment, a system for tracking electronic transactions in a network environment includes a network entry point that may receive a transaction request, the transaction request comprising a communications protocol. The network entry point may generate a unique identifier and insert the unique identifier into the transaction request. The network entry point may then communicate the transaction request and the unique identifier to a first network device using the communications protocol. The network entry point may create a first transaction report associated with the transaction request and communicate the first transaction report to a transaction module. The first network device may receive the transaction request and the unique identifier from the network entry point, process the transaction request, create a second transaction report associated with the transaction request; and communicate the second transaction report to the transaction module, the second transaction report comprising the unique identifier.
