Filters allow you to process data based on specific criteria for events in real-time and for users of the system. Filters enable you to manage data seen in the Sentinel Control Center. The Filter Engine drives the Real Time Event windows by maintaining the data structure for each security filter. Filters prevent users from viewing unauthorized events and drop events that users don't wish to see. Filters are created in the Admin tab of the Sentinel Control Center.
NOTE: The following are invalid filter name characters: $ # . * & : < >.
There are three types of filters:
§ "Public Filters"
§ "Private Filters"
§ "Global Filters"
