Any computer network can be susceptible to malicious attacks. If you have a computer network for your business, organization, institution, or cohort, then you need to make sure that you are somehow able to monitor these computers.
Computer software installed on one web console, which can then remotely install software onto the computers in that network, can help a security team stay on top of all the computers.
Internet monitoring software is a surveillance program or service commonly used by enterprise companies and other organizations to provide an added protective measure against external threats and insider threats, seeking to gain access to sensitive company information.
This software comes in all shapes and sizes. Monitoring software apps may be used by a company to detect unusual behaviors, but it may also be used as a way to gather employee performance metrics and to boost employee productivity.
If you are looking to use internet monitoring software for surveillance purposes, there are some key features that you need to consider.

How much time do your employees spend actually working? Less than you might think – potentially, a lot less. In Britain, an urban myth caught on that a man had died at the office and none of his co-workers noticed while wandering by his cubicle until the fifth day. It wasn’t true – but the reason the story caught so much traction is that it was just so believable. It’s easy to imagine the anonymous cog of an employee being ignored as he literally rots at his desk – because workers are often disconnected not just from the work they’re doing, but from their own co-workers in the next line of cubicles.
We can talk about how computer monitoring helps companies stay lean and profitable until we’re blue in the face – but we’d much rather that you hear it straight from our happy customers who can say it for us.
We’re grateful to a number of our clients for sharing their stories of how computer monitoring is working for them in our new case studies:
new: View screenshots in sync with reports in Central Logs Database [screenshot]:
