Hi @VitorBarroso, detection alerts are available under the Basic license you can find the available features under the Basic license in [this link](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions) under "Elastic Security".

You can create Detection rules as described in our [documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/security/current/rules-ui-create.html#rules-ui-create) in order to generate alerts based on your external events. Let us know if we can provide any additional help.
