Getting visibility at the right level – Tsol
Just did a survey,,, and the main pains we address or how customers are using the system are
More detail on bandwidth usage, usernames, who are hogging that valuable resource and maybe slowing critical business apps down
We track files moving around the network, internally, if a folder has been moved, who touched it last???
More visibility and insight internally, so much data and networks so critical, users more techy, lots of mobile devices,lots of risk, ALERT me if something unusual happens, get me the data I need to report and investigate!! Data protection, an audit trail.
