Network Monitoring
Monitoring the entire network is crucial for maintaining security, performance, and overall health. By employing effective monitoring solutions, organizations can proactively identify and address issues, ensure smooth operations, and prevent potential disruptions.
Why monitor your network?
Network monitoring tools are the cornerstone of any monitoring solution. These tools collect and analyze data from various network devices and systems to provide valuable insights into network performance and health. They can monitor bandwidth usage, latency, packet loss, device availability, and other key metrics.
Monitoring serves as a fundamental basis for network security. It provides continuous visibility into network activities, facilitating the detection of anomalies, intrusions, vulnerabilities, and potential security breaches. By monitoring and analyzing network traffic, organizations can respond swiftly to security incidents, prevent unauthorized access, comply with regulatory requirements, and optimize network performance. Incorporating robust monitoring systems and practices into network security strategies is essential for maintaining the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of critical assets in today’s complex and ever-evolving threat landscape.
Internet of things
Internet of things refers to a vast network of interconnected devices, objects and systems that communicate and share data over the internet. These “things” can range from everyday household items like smart thermostats and refrigerators to industrial machines and city infrastructure. IoT enables devices to collect and exchange data, allowing for automation, remote control and improved efficiency.
Information Technology
Information Technology (IT) refers to the use of computers, software, networks and other electronic devices to process, store, retrieve and transmit data. IT encompasses a wide range of activities and technologies that support the management and dissemination of information in various forms, including text, images, audio and video.
Operational Technology
Operational Technology (OT) refers to the hardware and software systems that are used to monitor and control physical devices, processes and events in industrial environments. Unlike Information Technology (IT), which deals with data processing and management, OT is focused on the real-time operation and management of industrial assets.
Industrial Internet of Things
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) refers to the application of Internet if Things (IoT) technology in industrial and manufacturing environments. It involves connecting industrial machinery, equipment, sensors and systems to the internet, enabling them to communicate, collect and exchange data in real time!
