Security alert notifications come with empty report

ShadowsPapa's picture

I get many dozens each and every day - email from SEM, "Security Alert Notification"
The email says one thing, the attachment, however, has NOTHING.
It's been this way through ALL upgrades, from our original install over a year ago, through a move to different servers, and different versions. Still the same issue - email says there were xxx security events, such as 5 security events, 59 in 1 minutes, include firewall, traffic.
When I open the attachment, I get this - there's nothing there!
(this is another reason I'd like to see them move AWAY from attachments and simply put the info in the email body, I'm sick of opening all these attachments to get details - and then find the details do not exist! If the info was in the email BODY, I could SORT into folders with Outlook.)

 I too am receiving a large

 I too am receiving a large volume of blank security alert notifications. Mine however started after RU5. I have very seldom received blank ones in the past, they were rare. Now there are hundreds daily. Also, since upgrading to RU5, Application Event Log is filling up with PerfLib Errors Event ID 1000.
