Chapter 3. Configuring Filters and the FILTERS File
XYPRO Technology Corporation 42 Proprietary and Confidential
The ACTION selection chapter begins with the ACTIONCOLL_BEGIN keyword and
ends with the ACTIONCOLL_END keyword. Between these two keywords you can
place one or more “paragraphs” to select one or more ACTIONS. Each of these
paragraphs begins with the ACTION_BEGIN keyword and ends with the
ACTION_END keyword. All of the pertinent ACTION selection keywords must be
contained between these two keywords.
Action Selection Syntax
ACTIONCOLL_BEGIN
ACTION_BEGIN
<action definition keywords here>
MAXRECORDAGE 43200
ACTION_END
ACTIONCOLL_END
FILTERDEFEND
In the FILTERS file, each keyword must be on its own line.
3.2.1 Logical ANDs and ORs
Within a MOVER or DATA selection paragraph, the various criteria are combined with
a logical and (!and). An audit event must match all of the criteria in order to trigger the
specified ACTION.
Example 1 says, if an audit event matches the specified OPERATION and
TARGETLOGIN user name, and the TERMINAL, and the RESULT text, then trigger
the action.
Example 1: How to specify multiple selection criteria within a paragraph
DATA_BEGIN
DATA_SELECT_BEGIN
FILTERTYPE STRINGFILTER
AUDIT.OPERATION LIKE "(AUTHENTICATE|VERIFYUSER)"
!and …
AUDIT.TERMINAL NOTCONTAIN "#HLPR1"
!and …
AUDIT.MESSAGEID LIKE "(51|55)"
!and …
AUDIT.TARGETLOGIN = SUPER.SUPER
DATA_SELECT_END
If you have multiple MOVER or DATA selection paragraphs, there is a logical or (!or)
between paragraphs.
Example 2: If the MOVER is reading the XYGATECM or Safeguard or XYGATEUA
audit trails, then check this Filter.
Example 2: How to specify multiple MOVERs
FILTERDEFBEGIN $LOGON-ALERTS
MOVER_BEGIN
MOVER_SELECT_BEGIN
PRODUCT = XYGATECM
MOVER_SELECT_END
