Special lab: Amalgam

Amalgam - the system of a professional multichannel video of the image of the screen of monitors developed by the Russian company "Spetslab".

With new technology from Spetslab it is possible to work on the home computer from everywhere. It is tested and soon the possibility of free communication with the computer at long distances without special means will be available for sale.

On any platform, without installation of any programs, without the administrative rights of access which are usually limited in foreign network - generally, from any world space where is though some communication and the standard browser, your computer will understand mouse buttons.

For example, you will not deliver Radmin in an Internet cafe, and Amalgam can work via the browser without installation of plug-ins and providing the administrative rights. Having seen the remote screen of the home computer in the browser, you will be able to guide the mice cursor to the right place and to make any actions available on its two keys.

Also to manage any remote computer in other city or other country you will be able directly from the mobile phone. If you left something at home if you need urgently to look at the document in your computer if near at hand there is no phonebook if it is necessary to use the serious program … - just get phone. It is possible "to wake" the computer programmatically on network too. If you got used to disconnect it from network of a power supply, then Telepathy or Videobleyzer will take care of electric manipulations.

Description

The AMALGAM system offers not only information search about already accomplished facts, but also tracking of dangerous intentions. It does not need passwords to get into most "sacred". At the same time videos, audio, security and other types of widely known control in one sheaf synchronized on time are combined.

• it is a professional multichannel video of the image of the screen of monitors.
• it is the distributed network complex capable to collect all information from remote computers, completely documenting (as a video flow) all actions of the user.
• this multidimensional mirror capable to display screens of hundreds of computers on the owner's monitor as in real time, and in record.
• completely supports all protocols of a video of GOALcity and on technology almost differs in nothing from a normal video, only instead of video cameras the program of interception of the image from the screen is used.
• easily fits into any architecture of network - from local to the Internet - and does not require any specific equipment. In fact, it is software of production of Spetslab company, GOALcity component.
• has all service functions of a normal video - from video detection to video analytics that considerably reduces a flow of excess information. Considering that on the monitor there are no noises, these technologies work ideally - literally this word.
• the head can control work of all enterprise in real time and also browse a video of activity of any of networked PCs. At the same time to display parallel watching video, listening of audio and dynamics of drawdown of sensors/keys.
• The video analytics helps to calculate distinctive features of this or that activity: games, video porn, finance documents, Internet browsers, text key shortcuts, even direction of cursor movement of "mouse".
• AMALGAM is actively applied for a long time in the bank sphere where accounting fraud became a life norm. Nearly two years Amalgam documents activity of computers of all staff of some public services with especially protected secrets.

At first there was a problem

We were invited in one big bank to help to deal with the "black" credits. Somehow large sums were issued to persons which knew nothing about this issue. The phenomenon purchased mass character, millions left somewhere. Everything was carried out correctly, without errors. But it was impossible to collect this money.

Everything that we could make, it to force each meter of the premises of bank video cameras. To control work of operators, cameras were delivered also in front of monitors of computers … At first the number of such problems considerably decreased, but for a while. In a month money began to flow the river again. It is natural that the problem was behind thin computer transactions, and there was a task to control them. But on what to put a trap? In what place and what to find?

It was obvious that cameras in front of monitors of computers are not effective, they are constantly blocked by bodies and the heads of operators, and as we tried, it was impossible to change something to the best. Therefore the management of bank considered our installation unsatisfactory. Thoughts of new technology also began with it.

All new – well forgotten old

On the Internet there are a lot of programs capable to kapchurit the screen in "avishka". But all of them are ground more on the presentations, creation of demo videos, there is no opportunity to keep permanent record and to track down the necessary transaction. It as the video tuner in comparison with the professional system of video control. Both have function of record of video, but the first is not capable to provide security issues. It became clear that the new program is necessary.

12 years ago in Spetslab own software of SL-Control was actively used. It was the main module of work of GOAL on network. At first under DOS, then under Windows 3.1, also even NT were farther 95, 98, 2000. Our users still well remember it. She "plundered" the remote screen and allowed to watch it on network. With the advent of GOALcity this program lost the relevance as new technologies did not require transfer of all screen, each camera had own video channel. However nobody removed people from SL-Control, probably, on a zabyvchatost. Programmers continued to develop this project, only already under GOALcity technology. Many years to beta testers this program gave all the best, and nobody understood why it is necessary especially as for control of remote screens there are more perfect Radmin programs.

Remembered a gallery after collision with a bank problem. It turned out that new SL-Control so organically fitted into GOALcity that it is capable to transfer on network and to write on a disk the events on the screen of the VIDEO AS computer. Practically there is no distinction with the video camera. Even same all protocols. Not only that the remote monitor is displaid in the standard GOALcity video window, so he also registers with all functionality of the video channel. From video detection to video analytics, from the choice of archives before management of record, from connection of third-party modules to universal logic of SL ++ - everything works on complete. At us the professional system of video control of monitors of computers turned out!

Result

As a result of use of Amalgam in bank the technology of a juggling of data was revealed by two operators. They wrote out the credits to people who once addressed for them and filled in the application form for issue. Owing to the different reasons nearly a half of addressed does not obtain the credits as it does not conform to requirements or finds other ways of search of means and simply does not appear any more. However the credits after all were issued, listed they on the cash cards sent by mail. You understand, such cards did not reach receivers – mail works for us "badly". In a type of big value of the stolen money women were given for 8 years of a general regime. Further this story was lit in television media. Unfortunately, about the Special Lab there nothing was told. But Amalgam is completely developed in Spetslab and is the property of the company.
