1 Overview

  WebJob downloads a program or script from a remote WebJob server
  and executes it in one unified operation.  Any output produced
  by the program/script is packaged up and sent to a remote, possibly
  different, WebJob server.  WebJob is useful because it provides
  a mechanism for running known good programs on damaged or potentially
  compromised systems.  This makes it ideal for remote diagnostics,
  incident response, and evidence collection.  WebJob also provides
  a framework that is conducive to centralized management.  Therefore,
  it can support and help automate a large number of common
  administrative tasks and host-based monitoring scenarios such as
  periodic system checks, file updates, integrity monitoring,
  patch/package management, and so on.

  WebJob is available at: http://webjob.sourceforge.net
