Monit Monitoring???

Hi,

I received the following message:

2018-06-01 15:16:07 Warning: Monit Monitoring - SECURITY ISSUE
Monit Monitoring is NOT set on your server, click here to check it.


Can anyone tell me where I can read more about Monit Monitoring, what does it represent, what functions it performs and what would it be useful for me?

The installation of Monit monitoring will have you influence other functions or elements of the CWP?

Thanks in advance!

> Apparently we want Monit?, as it's cPanel's tailwatchd.
> How is it different than Services Monitoring (for systemd services)?
