Is there a server available that will periodically collect all of the
security eventviewer messages from each machine on the network and then put
those into an SQL database where they can be queried as a global resource
for the company?

Not yet free tool from Microsoft. Maybe in MOM and NetIQ.

I'd suggest to use syslog for event consolidation. For Windows event log to
syslog, you can use Snare Agent (free):

As syslog server, can use Kiwi Syslog Daemon:

Commercial version supports ODBC logging to SQL Server.

Alternatively you can consider Snare server.
