Abstract: According to the present invention, improved techniques for monitoring and managing access and activity at individual devices in a networked environment. Specific embodiments can provide individual and workplace productivity enhancement through self-regulation enforced by peer-group monitoring of network and application usage. In accordance with the specific embodiments of the present invention, techniques that reveal activity of individual users at any device, such as a computer telephone, or other device, within the network environment can be used to analyze flows of information within an enterprise, workplace productivity, network security and other applications in enterprises, including business entities, technical entities, and governmental entities. Specific embodiments provide systems, methods, computer programs and apparatus for monitoring activity at networked entities, such as individual devices, computers, other devices, or other networked computing entities.

Abstract: A security administration server providing various security services in the LAN and a host server operating in connection thereto are provided. There is installed a security administration server (S) having a function for collecting various log information managed in various devices to be monitored (C) operating in the LAN, a function for generating an image by extracting information useful for security management of the LAN from collected log information and visualizing such information to a form easy for a person to use, and a function for sending the image to another monitoring device (C). Further, the security administration server (S) provides various security services in connection with a host server (H) operating in an external network.
