Monitoring

Centrally log all network computer activity

Everything users do on your network is discretely logged to a central location. Impero Logviewer makes it easy to view these logs and detailed reports on network computer activity can be produced. 

These logs are useful to prove access to a particular resource, show what documents a particular user has printed or show how long a student was off task for and what they were doing during that time.

Monitor & Record Remote Screens

Impero allows you to watch all computer screens live from your own computer. You can discretely monitor what is happening live and record remote screens for later review. 

Recording the remote screens can be useful to prove misbehavior or good work and can be replayed using any computer.

Choose from Live images or Still thumbnails. The total Thumbnail images viewable at any given time is dependent on your screen resolution.

View screenshots of attempted banned resource access

Being alerted when an illegal resource is accessed can be invaluable. Students no longer dare to go off task - they know the teacher or administrator will be alerted! To make things more interesting, a screenshot of the access attempt is recorded for evidence. 

An example of this could be to detect when a student tries to access MSN Messenger, Impero will block this application, but a screenshot of the access attempt will be available and optionally stored for later review. Impero can also alert you if students type specific words and sentences, perfect for detecting 'Cyber Bullying'.

View all open and previously opened resources

Besides viewing a live image of remote computer screens, you can see all current open windows and previously opened windows of any logged on user.

This is useful when a student is trying to hide a particular website. It doesn't matter if they minimize this website and pretend to continue working, you can see it anyway.From the Impero Console you can see all websites and applications users have opened, all printed documents, all deleted files and much more.
