Event Filters

This view shows event filters created in the Executables section. Event filters are rules in ESET Inspect On-Prem that determine which low-level events should be excluded from the database. The database size is proportional to the number of stored low-level events. Reducing stored events with Event Filters helps lower disk usage and improve performance.

You do not need to use Event Filters if you configure ESET Inspect On-Prem to Store only the most important data or Store data related directly to detections in More > Settings.

The Dashboard > Events Load shows executables and computers reporting the most low-level events. You can create Event Filters using the Filter events button on the Executable details page.

Filtering, Tags and Table options

Use filters at the top of the screen to refine the displayed items. Tags are powerful when searching for a specific computer, detection, incident, executable or script. Click the gear gear_icon icon for table options to manage the main table.
