How does GFI EventsManager work?
GFI EventsManager breaks down the events management process in 3 automated operational stages, making the product easy to use and configure.

• Stage 1 - Event Collection: GFI EventsManager will automatically collect Window event logs W3C and Syslog data from remote log sources.
• Stage 2 - Event processing and centralization: GFI EventsManager will process collected events and normalize processed events to a central database.
• Stage 3 - Generate output/results: During this stage, GFI EventsManager will generate meaningful reports on its findings, trigger email, SMS and network alerts on key events and trigger remedial actions such as the execution of a script or executable file on key events.
