A system for use in managing activity of interest within an enterprise is provided. The system comprises a computer configured to (i) receive sensor data that is related to key activity to the enterprise, such key activity comprising a type of object and the object's activity at a predetermined location associated with the enterprise, the sensor providing information from which an object's type and activity at the predetermined location can be derived, (ii) process the sensor data to produce output that is related to key activity to the enterprise, and (ii) store the information extracted from the processed data in a suitable manner for knowledge extraction and future analysis. According to a preferred embodiment, the object is human, machine or vehicular, and the computer is further configured to correlate sensor data to key activity to the enterprise and the output includes feedback data based on the correlation.

A system and method for a vulnerability assessment mechanism that serves to actively scan for vulnerabilities on a continuous basis and interpret the resulting traffic in context of policy is provided. Vulnerability information is presented within an enterprise manager system enabling the user to access vulnerability information, recommended remediation procedures, and associated network traffic. A studio mechanism is used to add scanners to the appropriate policies and control the scope and distribution of scans within the target network.

A Managed Site (10), a logical network entity, is composed of a number of Sub Sites (20) in a one to many relationship. A Sub Site (20) is a logical component, which is composed of a number of Engines (30). Nodes (40) similarly relates to their Engine (30) in a many to one relationship. A Node (40) is a collection of Managed Elements (ME's) (50) (while being an ME (50) itself), which represent network state information. The subsite (20) consists of the engine (30) connected to server nodes (40). One or more clients (110) are connected to the management engine (30) and access management engine (30) information relating to managed elements (50) including nodes (40). The connected manager engines may communicate with one another so that, for example, in the event of a failure, one of the manager engines remaining on line commences monitoring of manage elements assigned to the failed manager engine. Upon accessing the manager engine (30), the client interface displays relationships among managed elements (50) using meaningful connectors and tree-like structures. In addition to basic managed element state monitoring functionality, the manager engine (30) provides a variety of automated tasks ensuring the health of the network and optimal failure correction in the event of a problem. For example, the manager engine (30) performs root cause analysis utilizing an algorithm tracing through manged element (50) relationships and indicating the source of the failure.

A method, system, and program for remote enterprise management of high availability systems are provided. Multiple high availability systems are networked in an enterprise and managed overall by a remote enterprise server. Within each high availability system, a cluster management controller monitors a status of a particular component of the high availability system and reacting to adjust the high availability system when the status indicates an error. In addition, with each high availability system, a monitoring controller detects when the cluster management controller reacts to the status of the particular component and detects a condition of a multiple components of the high availability system. The monitoring controller then reports the error and the condition of the components to the remote enterprise server. The remote enterprise server is enabled to manage each high availability system based on the reports received from each of the multiple high availability systems.
