1. A method comprising:

  • receiving, by a monitor server, change data associated with a plurality of changes captured on a target host, the target host providing the change data in response to detecting the plurality of changes, wherein the change data includes at least one rule change detected on the target host;

    determining, by the monitor server, whether the at least one rule change is in compliance with one or more compliance policies, thereby generating test results;

    analyzing, by the monitor server, the test results in order to group the change data into clusters; and

    correlating, by the monitor server, the clusters with at least one change catalog that includes a plurality of expected rule violations in order to classify the clusters with at least one potential reason for the plurality of changes.
