  8. System Architecture – Cont. The System is composed of four major parts: • Web Server • DataBase (MySql) • Android Client • Manager Web-Based Report System Limor Segev, Eran Frieman, Carmel Karni July 2009, www.cs.bgu.ac.il/~segevlim

  9. Web Server • Developed on top of Apache-Tomcat. • Supports multiple connections/requests. • Communicates with clients via Servlets mechanism. • Has an Interface to MySql DB. • Supplies API to an external Threats Detection Application. Limor Segev, Eran Frieman, Carmel Karni July 2009, www.cs.bgu.ac.il/~segevlim

  10. Android Client • Developed using Google’s Android SDK. • Listens to applications-installations events. • Enables Applications backup on a remote Web Server, automatically and on demand. • Enables restoring applications on the device on demand. - Gets updates from the server periodically. - Easy to use, configurable. Limor Segev, Eran Frieman, Carmel Karni July 2009, www.cs.bgu.ac.il/~segevlim

  11. System Manager • Web based User Interface • Enables monitoring the server’s data. • Enables various reports production, such as: • Users Report. • Applications Report. • Users-Applications Report. • Malwares Report.
