Filtering the Email Protection Page

  • Last updated on

You can filter the Email Security page to concentrate on the email threats you most want to see. You can filter out the data you don't want to see to more easily find the data you're interested in.

Multiple filters can be active at any time.

Filters are active until you remove them, even if you navigate to another page. When you return to the dashboard, the filter will still be in place.

The difference between filters and quick filters

You can create filters two ways, by:

  • Adding a filter
  • Creating a quick filter

Adding a filter lets you select a wider variety of subjects to filter on, including account, date range, IP address, impact, keyword, message id, sender, subject, threat level, and threat type. Adding a filter also lets you create exclusion filters. For more information, see the Exclusion filter section below.

Creating a quick filter is faster, but has fewer options. To create a quick filter, simply click on an element you see on the page in the following areas:

  • Analysis Results
  • Top Threat Targets
  • Threat Types
  • Analysis Results

You can use a combination of filters and quick filters.

The default filter

By default, the Email Security page is filtered by a date range of one month. This filter is active whenever you open or refresh the Email Security page. This filter is not removed when you click Clear All, but you can delete it by clicking the Remove button. See To remove one filter below.

Exclusion filters

You can also create filters that exclude the values that you choose, so everything is displayed except for the chosen values. For example, if you select a date range of one month and then negate that condition so that all data from earlier than one month are displayed.

Filter operators

When you add filters, you have the choice to use an And or Or operator. The operator is applied to all the filters you add.

OperatorDefinition
AndData has to fulfill all filters to be displayed.
OrData only has to fulfill one filter to be displayed.
