thwack Monthly Mission - August 2014

Trouble is afoot in IT land! Cloaked in denim and faded T-shirts, IT pros all over the world are mobilizing in search of that elusive outage or performance issue that lay dormant in the deep recesses of their labs, server rooms, data centers, everywhere. Their mission: reveal, rectify, and most important, find out who’s to blame.  The August thwack mission is a whodunit undertaking like you've never seen. This is your time to become master sleuths and match wits with your IT assets. Unravel the mysteries, thwart the mayhem, and emerge in time for the next showing of Guardians of the Galaxy.
