Event

An event is any observable occurrence in your IT infrastructure. An event can be something as benign and unremarkable as typing on a keyboard or receiving an email. Each time that happens, it counts as an event. An event doesn’t have to be a problem; updating your firewall is an event. Security Events are events that could affect your information security specifically. Businesses will face many of these – security measures deal with most of these and are unnoticed or not acted upon.
