The OpcSecurityAnalyzer application is designed to help with security permission settings related to OPC DA server access.

Local and Remote OPC servers can be browsed and accessed. The User definitions and some other settings can quickly be changed to determine if the access is correctly allowed or denied.
Server access may be denied due to Firewall settings. The OpcSecurityAnalyzer shows the Firewall settings and helps quickly make the proper settings.
If access is unexpectedly denied then a number of tests can be executed and the displayed findings should help to locate the cause for the denial.


The above screen shot shows the log of a remote serve access. The first Connect failed because the server was not enabled in the Firewall.
The second Connect failed because the user has no DCOM launch rights.
In the third, successful Connect the OpcSecurityAnlyzer impersonated a user that has DCOM launch rights.
