SECTION A
Qs # 1: Make Continuously Monitoring with Operational Metrics

1. Continuous Monitoring: An enterprise can use continuous monitoring to automatically identify


security threats, performance difficulties, and non-compliance concerns by continuously
monitoring its IT systems and networks.
 Real-time threat and problem identification is the aim in order to promptly resolve
possible issues. Increased visibility into your IT processes through continuous monitoring
can result in quicker and more focused incident responses. The earlier you identify
mistakes, the sooner you may start the examination of the underlying causes and the
ensuing remedial procedure. Put differently, the mean-time-to-resolution (MTTR) is
being lowered.
 Additionally, you can use this to send automated notifications to the relevant IT teams,
enabling them to promptly handle any urgent problems. In order to implement changes
and resolve the issue without requiring human participation, you can also combine these
warnings with automation tools such as runbooks. Because of this proactive strategy, the
entire experience is transparent for the clients of the IT system.
 For instance, a continuous monitoring tool can send out an alert when a certain server's
free storage space falls below a predetermined level. Consequently, the infrastructure
team can receive an automated SMS text message telling them to expand the disk volume
or boost the server's capacity. Comparably, an event indicating "multiple failed login
attempts" may cause a network configuration modification that blocks the offending IP
address and notifies the SecOps team.
2. Operational Efficiency: The ratio of input required to maintain a business and product produced
is measured by a statistic called operational efficiency. The things you gain like quick
development timeframes, high quality, money, and the ability to attract and retain customers,
come from your operational strategy, personnel, and time. This statistic is used by businesses to
cut down on time, effort, and/or material waste.
 To do this, processes are streamlined to operate more economically. Both waste and
redundant processes are removed from the workflow. Companies consider
manufacturing, distribution, inventory control, and resource usage in order to accomplish
these goals.
 Operational expenses/ Total Revenue= Operational Efficiency
 The operational efficiency ratio for your company is 0.5 if the total revenue for 2022
was $200,000 (output) and the operating expenses were $100,000 (input). This indicates
that $0.50 was spent for every $1 in revenue.
3. Percentage Yield: Manufacturing businesses frequently use percentage yield to gauge
operational efficiency. This tactic entails streamlining procedures and machinery to generate as
many high-quality items as feasible. Yield optimization relies heavily on quality testing and
continuous tracking, although machinery monitoring may also be helpful. Engineers are
empowered with a constant flow of information on the condition and health of equipment thanks
to continuous machine monitoring. It provides real-time insights into even the smallest variations
in operational conditions changes that have a direct impact on product quality through data
analytics. This is not like typical maintenance procedures, which have limitations due to sporadic
data and a deficiency of real-time insights.
4. Capacity utilization: The capacity utilization rate is useful to companies as it provides an
insight into the value of production and the resources being utilized at any given time.
 It determines the company’s ability to cope with a rise in the production of output
without increasing costs.
 A reduction in the rate indicates an economic slowdown while an increase signifies
economic expansion.
 Actual level of output/Maximum level of output * 100 = Capacity Utilization
