Broker VM data collector applets

Configure Broker VM data collector applets for Cortex Data Security.

To extend the capabilities of Cortex Data Security to your on-premise infrastructure, you use the Broker VM and a specialized application called an applet. The Broker VM is a virtual machine deployed within your local network that acts as a secure, local collector and gateway. It is essential for unifying and packaging data from your on-premise resources before sending them to Cortex Data Security.

Note

• For more information on the Broker VM, see Broker VM.
• Your data is scanned on the Broker VM itself, and only the metadata and classification results are transmitted from the on-premise environment to Cortex Data Security.
