A Tool for automatic Enterprise Architecture modeling

• Enterprise Architecture is an approach which aims to provide decision support based on organization-wide models. The creation of these models is however cumbersome as multiple aspects of an organization need to be considered. The Enterprise Architecture approach would be significantly less demanding if data used to create the models could be collected automatically. This paper illustrates how a vulnerability scanner can be utilized for data collection in order to automatically create Enterprise Architecture models, especially covering infrastructure aspects. We show how this approach can be realized by extending an earlier presented Enterprise Architecture tool. An example is provided through a case study applying the tool on a real network.
