Alerts Monitoring
Alerts monitoring allows the ESM Administrator to effortlessly gauge at a glance the security
state of all ESM managed endpoints throughout the enterprise. Alerts triggers are fully
configurable and can report either a warning, or as a full emergency alert. This tool is accessed
either through Endpoint Auditing on the task bar, or through the View menu. To access Alerts,
