Monitoring of the system

It has been a long-standing point of action to rationalise and improve the existing automated hardware & software monitoring, both expanding its coverage (to include more elements to be monitored), and as for the reaction of the system when presented with threats, particularly in informing the users about the potential problems they may encounter, as right now the information is typically relayed only to the computing group.

New hardware has been acquired to consolidate those services and the plan for the next months is to start standardising the way we access the information on the different services according to industry standards, and integrating all the identified services/resources under the same system.

As part of the preparations to set-up and configure a system to supervise and monitor the different critical computer and network systems at the NOT, extensive documentation on current system configuration where prepared.
