## Why GetEventForwardingSettings is rated Low

This tool retrieves existing event forwarding configuration metadata. Reading backup system settings poses minimal risk—it does not modify infrastructure, execute commands, delete data, or move money. The blast radius of misuse is limited to information disclosure about how the system forwards monitoring events.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'Get' and description 'Get event forwarding settings' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification. The tool queries configuration settings (SNMP, syslog) without side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call GetEventForwardingSettings to retrieve information from Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
