Auditor cloud® – monitoring that takes the burden off IT administrators

IT infrastructure monitoring often raises concerns in organizations about excessive complexity, generation of false alarms, and undue burden on the administrative team. The perception has become entrenched that monitoring tools, while necessary, are a source of information noise rather than real support. Meanwhile, the key to efficiency lies in designing a system that works unobtrusively, providing administrators with precise and contextual data.

eAuditor cloud® fits into this philosophy. It is a system that acts as an advanced analytical tool, monitoring key processes without introducing unnecessary chaos, thus enabling proactive management of security and infrastructure performance.

Infrastructure foundations: hardware resources and user activity

Inherent in effective monitoring is deep and structured knowledge of the physical state and utilization of IT resources. In eAuditor cloud®, this knowledge is presented in comprehensive tables that go beyond static reports:

• The computer’s card provides a complete picture of the device’s life cycle, including detailed technical parameters, analysis of CPU and RAM load (e.g., usage rates close to performance limits), disk temperature monitoring, and logging of system errors and service failures.
• The user card aggregates the history of logins, activities and detailed statistics of application usage.

This consolidated approach is fundamental: it immediately catches anomalies, such as unauthorized logins outside of standard business hours or running unverified software, which is often the first signal of a potential problem.

Identification of bottlenecks: processes, services and event logs

When performance degradation occurs in an IT environment, the most common cause is unstable applications. eAuditor cloud® offers instant insight into the behavior of critical processes and services. Monitoring of services, applications consuming excessive memory resources, server response delays (e.g., a corporate website) and logging of critical error messages in system logs are collected and analyzed in real time.

By centralizing this data, administrators are not forced to analyze information from multiple independent tools. Such comprehensiveness allows for instant and fact-based response, eliminating the need for time-consuming guessing at the cause of a malfunction in the style of: “it works for me.”

Risk management: peripherals, data transfer and security

Points in a company’s infrastructure that generate disproportionate operational and security risks are often ignored.

Peripherals

Monitoring the status of print queues helps prevent departmental downtime. USB port control is essential to monitor the input or output of unauthorized data via removable memory sticks, minimizing the risk of infection or uncontrolled information transfer.

Network performance

In addition to hardware monitoring, the system acts as a stethoscope of the entire network. Continuous monitoring of server performance, network transfer and load on key services identifies whether the problem is local or a symptom of an organization-wide overload. Detecting abnormally heavy network traffic generated by individual workstations enables a response before users collectively report a general decline in system performance.

DLP

In terms of data security, eAuditor cloud® monitors outgoing correspondence, which is the first preventive filter. While monitoring is a great starting point, it should be noted that full Data Loss Prevention is an advanced module available in eAuditor cloud®, which includes blocking and content analysis, representing a separate and complex topic. Given its importance, a discussion will be included in a dedicated publication.

Real-time support: remote access functionality

Although monitoring focuses on background diagnostics, the ability to intervene immediately is essential in critical situations. For this purpose, eAuditor cloud® is equipped with a remote viewing module, implemented using WebRTC technology. This functionality enables real technical support, precise diagnosis and rapid response. This component of user support management, while complementary to monitoring, is a separate and equally important category that deserves to be discussed in detail in a dedicated article.

Prevention instead of repair

The goal of implementing professional IT monitoring is to transform the stressful process of fault detection into a source of operational peace of mind. eAuditor cloud® accomplishes this goal by providing clear, contextual information while eliminating the noise of false alarms. The system signals only those events that are critical, and does so early enough to enable proactive action. The transparency of the data and intuitive interface make it possible for the IT team to act strategically and efficiently, addressing problems at the source before they turn into major operational failures.
