What does Deep Security support for forwarding system events?

Deep Security supports forwarding system events using SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), which is designed to facilitate the exchange of management information between network devices. This capability allows for real-time monitoring and alerting of system events, enhancing the ability to manage and secure cloud environments and on-premises systems effectively.

Using SNMP, Deep Security can send notifications about various events, such as security incidents or system status changes, to an external management system. This is particularly useful for organizations that utilize centralized monitoring tools or security information and event management (SIEM) solutions, as it helps streamline the monitoring process and ensures that security teams can respond quickly to potential issues.

The other choices, while relevant in different contexts, do not specifically pertain to the forwarding of system events in Deep Security. SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is used primarily for sending emails, RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) is intended for remote desktop connections, and HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is used for transmitting web pages. These protocols serve different purposes and are not employed by Deep Security for the same event management tasks that SNMP addresses.
