Specifying filtering rules for a feed

This section explains what filtering rules are and how to configure them. Make sure that the General tenant is selected from the drop-down list that has all available tenants, in the upper-left area of the window.

About the filtering rules

Filtering rules are criteria for a feed and they let you exclude specific records from a feed.

Kaspersky CyberTrace uses filtering rules to filter the downloaded feed files during the update.The filtering rules that you specify are applied to feeds after they are updated, not to the current feeds.

Only those records that match all the specified criteria are included in the output file. If a filtering criterion is specified for a field and the field is missing from a record, this record will not be included in the output file.

    For the list of possible filtering conditions, see section "Possible filtering conditions" below.
