GFI EventsManager v8.2.0.20090922

The huge volume of system events that is generated daily is a valuable source of information for network administrators to help them monitor configuration changes, administrative actions, identify system errors and suspected security breaches. This is, however, an overwhelming task without the proper tools. The larger the network, the greater is your need for a solution that allows you to monitor, manage and archive thousands of events that are generated by devices across heterogeneous networks. GFI EventsManager 8, an award-winning events monitoring, management and archiving solution, supports a wide range of event types such as W3C, Windows events, Sylogs and, in the latest version, SNMP traps generated by devices such as firewalls, routers and sensors.
Providing support for devices from the top 20 manufacturers in the world as well as custom devices, GFI EventsManager allows you to monitor an extended range of hardware products, report on the health and operational status of each one and collect data for analysis. You can also track employee activity on the network such as changes made to their PCs, files accessed during the day, meet legal and regulatory compliance such as SOX, PCI DSS, HIPAA and much more.
