Considering the importance of monitoring in the business sector and its knowledge to increase the protection of vulnerable information and ensure the proper functioning of your data center, it is essential to mention the comprehensive monitoring tool WOCU.
It is a monitoring solution for networks, servers, applications and IP devices, which integrates all departments of the infrastructure, whether physical or virtual, for better performance and decision making in organizations.
Some of its benefits include: real-time knowledge of infrastructure status, optimization of the use of IT resources and increased proactivity in daily operations in the organization.
Today, these academic and networking spaces have allowed the awareness of good information security practices within companies, solving some problems such as monitoring not oriented to business objectives and dispersed and unorganized information. WOCU has helped different organizations from different sectors to protect, monitor and analyze information with the best technology.
