DETECTION OF UNEXPECTED SERVER OPERATION THROUGH PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTE MONITORING

Technologies are generally presented for identifying inconsistent usage of computing devices in a multiple computing device environment. When software or hardware are compromised or faulty, the results of self-monitoring may be unreliable for determining inconsistent usage arising from a security breach, a hardware fault, or a software error. Computing devices may be independently monitored for physical attributes, such as temperature, vibration, emitted noise, etc., and such attributes may be compared to expected values based on computing load, network load, or the like. When the monitored and expected physical attribute values differ or conflict, possible inconsistent usage may be identified so that appropriate measures may be taken to rectify the situation.
