We are used to having chart studio tools to drag and drop the component templates. Sometimes, we keep existing templates for use. A good way is to have everyone in the same meeting space and work out the drawing together from the same template framework. This is quite the simplest until we move to another company where they use a different diagram charting studio.

UML has been around for years. It is incorporated in many programming language packages. What if we can translate the meeting notes to UML we arrive on the workflow, use case scenarios, work plan milestone staging, etc, and get a tool to draw them for us? The scripts can be modified easily when scripted cleanly and be re-used. The tool will get it drawn for us within seconds and leaving us the next 2 hours for better use.

To create a diagram, focus on the following key elements Entities , Relationships,

Entities

  • Data: Represents the information being managed.
  • Key Controls: Security policies or mechanisms applied to the data.
  • Trusted Cluster Groups: Systems or clusters responsible for handling data under specific controls.
  • Intervention Mechanisms: Processes or states for quarantining and updating systems.

Relationships

  • The Data entity interacts with Key Controls.
  • Key Controls enforce policies on Trusted Cluster Groups.
