Importance of the event (Severity)

The severity of the event on a scale from 0 to 10 is determined as follows:

  • 0–3: Low
  • 4–6: Medium
  • 7–8: High
  • 9–10: Very high

The severity score of an event depends on the event type and status (Success or Failure).

For example, the severity score can be determined as follows:

  • For PM (Process management) and NT (Networking) events:
    • If event status is Audited or Blocked, the severity is 7.
    • For any other status, the severity is 3.
  • For AG (Agents) events:
    • If the event is successful, the severity is 5.
    • If an error occurred, the severity is 10.
  • For API events:
    • If the event is successful, the severity is 3.
    • If an error occurred, the severity is 8.
