When people come to talk about monitoring, each one has his own understanding of what is Monitoring.

Not so often people know that there are different kinds of monitoring. We will try to give some definitions.

First, you have 2 main kinds of IT systems monitoring: performance monitoring and availability monitoring.

Performance monitoring tries to give an image of the ongoing performances of the system, while availability monitoring only tests if the system is accessible, whatever the performances are.

But within these 2 large categories, there are many kinds of monitoring, each giving more or less information on the monitored system.

The answer to availability monitoring questions is always yes or not while the answer to performance monitoring questions is a time measure or a percentage. Obvious?

Interpol's Secretary General says the private sector needs to become much more involved in law enforcement investigations to give police the edge they need.

Interpol Secretary General Ronald K. Noble this week called for the creation of an integrated cybercrime investigative to combat the growing threat.

Noble pushed the idea of setting up a network that would enable police anywhere in the world to immediately identify and obtain help from security researchers and investigators in other countries 24 hours a day. He also called for building up information shares called National Central Reference Points and connecting them using Interpol's secure global police communications system, known as I-24/7.
