1. A method for improving a network by employing a modular event pipeline on servers within the network, comprising: defining the modular pipeline in a modifiable configuration file to include at least an event ingestor module, an event filter module, an event processor module, and an audit event creator module, wherein connections between modules are also defined within the modifiable configuration file; executing the modular pipeline in accordance with the modifiable configuration file on a server, the execution including: detecting, with the event ingestor module, an event originating on the given server; determining, with the event filter module, whether the event is relevant to the event processor module; in response to determining that the event is relevant to the event processor module, providing the event to the event processor module; determining, with the event processor module, whether the event matches an existing event object based on identifying information included in the event; in response to determining that the identifying information matches the existing event object, updating, with the event processor module, the existing event object based on the event; determining, with the audit event creator module, whether the existing event object satisfies an audit criterion; in response to determining that the existing event object satisfies the audit criterion, generating, with the audit event creator module, an audit event.
