Trigger webhooks, syslog messages, or scripts when violations occur. Integrate with your SIEM, Slack, or incident tools.
Discover events, drill into violations, track trends, and monitor database activity with built-in dashboards.
Transform, enrich, or normalize audit events before policy matching with configurable processors and JavaScript scripting.
