Tripwire Enterprise’s agents audit complete file systems on servers and desktops. These intelligent agents are installed locally on the server or desktop to take advantage of the local processing power, a cached baseline database, and correlated package analysis. In cases, where installing an agent is not appropriate, such as for locked-down appliances, Tripwire Enterprise’s agentless server monitoring remotely accesses the server to audit changes to critical files.
