  • Files of working data of the Server and sensors.
  • Installation settings file created by the application centralized installation script.
  • Application message log and audit log.
• Security policy applied on the Server.
• Information about the current status of services that support the operation of application components:
  • kics4net
  • kics4net-postgresql
  • kics4net-webserver
  • kics4net-websensor
