TECHNOLOGY
SQL for SECURITHOR
In designing SECURITHOR, we made sure to use SQL engine and database. SQL respects the 4 S we we are looking for: Strength, Stability, Security and Speed.

SECURITHOR is using PostgreSQL. This SQL engine has been around for 15 years and it is supported by a large community of developers. But the best is that it is free to use so you do not have to add a pricey Microsoft SQL of MySQL license to the cost of your Monitoring software.

Coding of the software application is accomplished with Visual Studio from Microsoft using Microsoft .net Framework. We use these tools to insure the best compatibility possible with Microsoft operating systems and to have a highly sophisticated graphic user interface. Visual Studio also give us the possibility to add more tools and extend options of SECURITHOR in the future. Reports are generated using Crystal Reports.
