16 Network monitoring The Network Section of IT Infrastructure provides a number of network
services on the University’s EdLAN network. It is known that some
services are used to monitor activity on the network and that there is
some reliance, by Colleges, that this activity takes place. The audit will
identify the services provided, how they are defined and how this
information is communicated to Colleges, so that they can shape their
own supplementary network security measures.
