APC NetBotz Solutions Offerings Meet Today’s Challenges
Security and Environmental Monitoring
How do you protect against invisible environmental enemies?
APC NetBotz®
An active, scalable monitoring solution designed to protect against physical threats,
environmental or human, that can cause disruption to IT assets. APC NetBotz delivers
the industry’s most robust security and environmental solution over an IP network.
Key Risk Areas
Are You Facing These Challenges?
> Are limited IT budgets forcing your organization to managed distributed facilities and
multiple locations with fewer resources?
> Has human error – accidental or intentional – caused downtime to network
equipment?
> Have you experienced environmental disruption caused by burst pipes, air
conditioning issues, or other factors?
> Are you working with densely packed racks?
> Are your data closets and sensitive equipment in sub-optimal locations?
> Do you work within a regulated industry with strict compliance responsibilities?
> Are you unable to proactively monitor your critical IT assets?
> Are you unable to warn your organization prior to catastrophic IT failure?
APC NetBotz Customers Report These Immediate Results
> Improved response time to incident via troubleshooting, early detection, and
automated threat response.
> Reduced staffing requirements by augmenting with remote eyes and ears
> Reduced operating costs with early problem detection before cost of remediation
becomes significant
> Reduced operating costs through fewer service calls, eliminating unnecessary site
visits
> Improved business decision support via trend monitoring
> Improved customer service through increased system and information availability
> Theft: Stolen equipment. Physical attacks against
local security through consoles, ports and network
closets
> Environment: Beyond fires, floods, spikes and
surges are less obvious disruptions like air condition
failures and burst pipes, both tremendous risk areas.
> Human error: Network equipment in distributed
environments are often located in open settings
where they are susceptible to tampering by non-IT
personnel.
> Sabotage: Beyond terrorism, sabotage can include
acts performed by disgruntled employees. It’s a
growing concern.
NetBotz Features
> Ensure business continuity by monitoring and
protecting IT assets from environmental hazards or
human error.
> Immediate detection minimizes IT downtime by
preventing an outage or by enabling rapid response.
Problems are solved before they become
catastrophic.
> Integration with InfraStruXure Central provides a
unified view of the entire physical infrastructure,
collecting, organizing, and distributing critical alerts
and information, while enabling mass, remote
adjustments and updates of managed devices,
including NetBotz.
> Identify faces and objects through comprehensive
video monitoring in small and large rooms.
