Abstract
A monitoring system may include a sensor configured to be mounted inside a computer chassis and generate sensor signals representative of a temperature associated with at least one computer component inside the computer chassis. The monitoring system may also include a sensor processor configured to receive the sensor signals and determine the temperature associated with the at least one computer component based at least in part on the sensor signals. The sensor processor may also be configured to compare the determined temperature with an expected temperature associated with the at least one computer component, and initiate a response when the determined temperature differs from the expected temperature by an amount equal to or greater than a threshold amount.
