Abstract

Embodiments relate to the generation of alerts in an event management system based upon risk. When an event device associated with the event management system, presents a logon page to a client device, the event device includes a beacon as part of the page to monitor and collect web device profile characteristics related to the client device. In response to a logon attempt by the client device, an event management device receives a notification regarding logon attempt and a risk assessment associated with the web device profile characteristics of the client device. Based upon a correlation of the notification and the corresponding risk assessment, the event management device can generate an alert, such as a SIEM alert, and can include an indication of priority, whether relatively low or high, and/or a confidence factor, whether or not the alert can be suppressed as part of the alert.
