ABSTRACT
The research work was conducted with the view of solving the problems encountered in the Ministry of Benue Internal Revenue Service, Benue state by using Network Activity Monitory System. The activity monitoring system was designed, tested and found to achieve the following: It monitored the daily activities of the clients, has a great impact on memory management of the server, Detected active users, Provided accurate evidence on corporate fraud when investigation is being carried out in an organization with regards to date and time and Captured and saved screen shots of every user’s daily activities. The present system was analysed in other to detect the bottlenecks using Structured System Analysis and Design Methodology. Object oriented analysis and design methodology was found sufficient and efficient in the design of the proposed system.
