ABSTRACT:
A change controller application, process and system tracks modification to a configuration of a computerized device by receiving a change request indicating a requested change to an existing configuration of the computerized device and preparing a change notification message identifying the requested change to the existing configuration of the computerized device. The change controller transmits the change notification message to at least one change notification recipient and determines if a change acknowledgement is provided in response. If a change acknowledgement is provided from a change notification recipient that indicates confirmation of receipt of the change notification message, the system allows the requested change to the configuration of the computerized device to take place. If the change acknowledgement is not provided from a change notification recipient, the system conditionally operates the computerized device so that a monitoring device networked to the computerized device perceives that a configuration change to the computerized device may have taken place.
