6.2 Generating a Basic Query

A basic query is a query that uses one or more of the built-in attributes for the entity

you have chosen.

Each attribute has its own set of values that it prompts for. For example, the PROGID

characteristic of the Guardian File entity prompts for the existence of a PROGID on the

file or the non-existence, so you can test for either the presence or absence of a

characteristic. Read security, on the other hand, lets you select a specific value for this

field of “–” ,N,C,U,A,G,O.

The following example shows the creation of a rule that tests for files that are secured

“NNNN”.

1. Select and expand Data Discovery Rules (refer to section 2.1, pages 30 and 31),

then right-click a Rule Group Name to which you want this basic query to belong,

and select Discovery Rule Builder.

The Rule and Query Builder screen will appear in the right pane.

Select or enter a Rule Group Name from the drop-down list.

Specify a Rule Name for your new rule.

You can add an optional comment.

Select the entity you want this rule to investigate.
