As organizations add more gateways, applications, users, and enforcement points, security teams must review more activity across more places. High-volume logs only become useful when they are correlated into security events that reveal what matters. SmartEvent transforms distributed security data into structured, correlated events, helping teams identify significant activity, investigate threats in real time, understand security trends, and report clearly from one security management experience.
See What Matters Across the Environment
SmartEvent gives teams a consolidated, unified view of security activity, including gateways and servers reporting events, critical attack types, infected hosts, software blade activity, high-risk applications, and security trends over time. Automatic alerts help teams focus on critical security events that need attention. Use SmartEvent to:
- Identify suspicious activity and recurring risk patterns.
- View prevented and detected attacks by policy.
- Monitor infected hosts, critical attacks, destinations, and traffic trends.
- Understand which users, applications, and sources are driving activity.
Investigate With Context
SmartEvent helps teams move quickly from a high-level event view into the details needed for investigation. Teams can search, filter, and drill into activity across threat prevention, access control, application usage, and logs. This gives analysts and administrators the context to understand what happened, where it happened, which assets were involved, and what should be reviewed next. Teams can also drill down from an event directly to the relevant policy rule in the same interface, helping connect activity to the policy context behind it.
Report Clearly to Every Stakeholder
Security events need to be understood by more than technical teams. SmartEvent supports clear reporting for security operations, network operations, compliance reviews, and executive communication. Teams can use SmartEvent to create reports that summarize threat activity, incident trends, infected hosts, high-risk applications, policy activity, and other indicators of security posture.
