The Event Source Management (ESM) interface is available through the Sentinel Control Center

using Sentinel Connectors and Sentinel Collectors.
In the ESM, you can:
Import/export Connectors and Collectors from/to the centralized repository available in ESM
Add/edit connections to event sources through the configuration wizards
View the real-time status of the connections to event sources
Monitor data flowing through the Collectors and Connector
Sentinel Collectors
The Collectors parse the data and deliver a richer event stream by injecting taxonomy, exploit
detection and business relevance into the data stream before events are correlated and analyzed and
sent to the database.
Sentinel Connectors
The Connectors use industry standard methods to connect to the data source to get raw data.
