8.3 Health Management
NEXYTE Health Monitor (HM) enables customers to monitor all system components, functionality
and performance from one centralized intuitive interface, eliminating the need to separately
monitor the status of each subsystem, or interface with an external database. With HM, customers
are empowered to respond quickly to and prevent potential problems. Operators can view the
physical status of all elements, get general statistics such as free storage, CPU usage, as well as the
status of the system’s logical functionality, such as ingestion mechanism, entity extraction,
analytics, external interfaces, etc.
The HM interfaces with major 3
rd
party machines and maintenance platforms such as VCenter and
eliminates the need for separate monitoring tools. For example, by integrating the VCenter
management to HM, the customer can monitor the different virtual machines, perform the
migration process from one virtual machine to another, and directly monitor the status of available
resources on each one of the machines.
Alarms are triggered based on user-defined thresholds and are accompanied by detailed
troubleshooting information, instructive system failure notifications, and a range of tools that
enable efficient and immediate failure management.
These include:
+ Sending real time notifications via external communication means such as email, SMS, etc.
+ Transferring notifications or specific events to the customer's centralized management
systems.
8.4 System Security
NEXYTE provides a variety of advanced security mechanisms that protect against external
penetration and unauthorized internal usage, thus drastically reducing the organization’s exposure
risk to malware infections and unauthorized data access to near zero:
+ Virus Scanning. NEXYTE includes Symantec's Scan Engine, a proven anti-virus and malware
protection engine which automatically scans content retrieved from external databases or
uploaded by users. NEXYTE isolates any virus detected in quarantine and blocks it within
the system. This anti-virus package is frequently updated to support the detection of new
types of viruses and other malware.
+ Ongoing Server and Workstation Protection. Symantec End Point Protection (SEP)
antivirus and personal firewall client is installed on each NEXYTE server and workstation.
SEP provides general protection from malicious files entering the NEXYTE system.
+ Workstation Isolation. The NEXYTE server can be isolated from the hardware on which it
runs by the usage of virtualized environment such as VMware ThinAPP. This enables the
isolation of potential malware running on fused documents and web pages from harming
the machine.
