System Events are Account-wide rules that are not linked to the actions of any specific Person or Group on the Customer Account. This includes hardware triggers (DPS, REX, hardware issue/condition, etc) or general Credential activity (any Credential being used, unknown Credentials, Duress PIN use, etc). Permission roles of Integrator and Admin have access to the System Events features.
