Shell Control Box (SCB) is an activity monitoring appliance that controls access to remote servers, virtual desktops, or networking devices, and records the activities of the users accessing these systems. For example, it records as the system administrators configure your database servers through SSH protocol, or the employees make transactions using thin-client applications in Citrix environment.

The recorded audit trails can be replayed like a movie to review the events exactly as they occurred. The content of the audit trails is indexed to make searching for events and automatic reporting possible.

SCB is especially suited to supervise privileged-user access as mandated by many compliance requirements, like PCI-DSS. It is an external, fully transparent proxy gateway, completely independent from the clients and the servers.

The server- and client applications do not have to be modified in order to use SCB; it integrates smoothly into the existing infrastructure.
