A couple of weeks ago our partner Rok Ponikvar from S&T contacted me about an issue one of his customers faced. His customer complained that Enterprise Alert is not alerting on current issues and even if he creates a test ticket in his OBM system no alert goes out. After a little back and forth we concluded that Enterprise Alert is still processing historic data from an Event Storm in OBM earlier that day.

In light of the recent news about yet another reported Zero-Day Exploit and the accompanying discussions about security, let’s touch on the topic of security audits and how Enterprise Alert can be configured to avoid or at least minimize potential security impact. First, let’s establish what we mean by security audit.

The benefits of using the correct reporting, analytics and information delivery capabilities can transform an organization. Having access to timely data, reporting, and analytic capabilities helps to ensure the ability to get the right data to the right users at the right time. Having the ability to pull any information that your business needs at any given time allows for the flexibility to get the information for your business when and where it is needed.
