The latest addition to the ever growing Security Monitoring tools from RapidSpike is the ability to perform Vulnerability Scans of your external facing servers and web applications.

An outage with one, several or all of your servers is hectic enough, but add in a stream of emails and phone calls from concerned customers and you’ve got a full-on situation.

That's right, you can now monitor up to 60 websites completely free.

The 2018 Olympic games have proven to be exciting, featuring ground-breaking athletic feats, new world records, and unprecedented diplomacy (two countries that are normally mortal enemies playing under the same flag!). The 2018 games are coming to a close, but it's not too late to get in on the action. We created a one stop shop dashboard for Olympic data (using LogicMonitor, of course).

Do you manage your organization’s IT infrastructure? Then you’ve probably dealt with change management in some capacity. IT change management—in particular—is an IT service management (ITSM) process where alterations to some or all the components in an organization’s IT infrastructure are planned, managed, and implemented.
