  1. The correct is B
    SmartEvent Correlation Unit
    The SmartEvent Correlation Unit analyzes the log entries and identifies events from them. During analysis, the SmartEvent Correlation Unit does one of these actions:

    Marks log entries that are not stand-alone events, but can be part of a larger pattern to be identified later.
    Takes a log entry that meets one of the criteria set in the Events Policy, and generates an event.
    Takes a new log entry that is part of a group of items. Together, all these items make up a security event. The SmartEvent Correlation Unit adds it to an ongoing event.
    Discards log entries that do not meet event criteria.

    1. Why B? C is correct.

      D – Takes a new log entry that is part of a group of items. Together, all these items make up a security event. The SmartEvent Correlation Unit adds it to an ongoing event.
      Discards log entries that do not meet event criteria.

      C is not mentioned here, because it is done by SmartEvent Server, not Correlation Unit.
