Client Monitoring
Page 27 of 86
The data the Client sends is stored in the form of deltas (differences between a newer screen capture and an older one) to minimize storage space.Recorded information is saved in an easy-to-review and easy-to-search form:• The name of the launched application• The title of the active window• Entered URL• Text entered via user’s keyboard (keystrokes)• Commands executed in Linux (both from user input & by
running the scripts)• The information on plugged-in USB devices
