Using search filters

The following describes how you can use search filters to perform a more specific search.

To search using search filters

  1. Enter a search filter in the Search query field, or click on an entry in the table.

    Figure 223: Search — Search filters

    There are search filters that are not displayed but you can still use them to filter the sessions. For example, you can search for active connections using the active search filter, and search results are listed accordingly, but there is no active field displayed in the search table or in the Overview, Details, Events, Alerts, or Contents tabs.

    For the list of search filters that you can use, see List of available search filters.

    		 TIP:

    Search is case insensitive. To make the search case sensitive, enclose the search keywords in double quotes.

    The search queries can include only alphanumerical characters. You can use complex expressions and boolean operators. For more information, see Using the content search.

  2. After specifying the relevant filters, click Search.

    		 TIP:

    To save the filters for future use, simply save the URL or bookmark it in your browser.

    Expected result

    Connection metadata is displayed in columns that you can filter for any parameter, or a combination of parameters. You can view the connection metadata in the search columns and also displayed as fields in the Overview, Details, Events, Alerts, or Contents tabs.

List of available search filters

This section lists the search filters that you can use to perform a more specific search. For information about how to use the search filters listed below, see Using search filters.

The following table provides an explanation to the search filter tables listed in this section.

Name:

Specifies the meaningful and easily readable name of the search filter.

Search filter:

Specifies the filter expression that you can use to filter the audit trails. For example, to narrow your search to a specific server-side IP address, you can enter the server.address: 10.30.255.70 search filter in the Search query field. All search results that contain that specific server IP address are listed.

Displayed:

Specifies if the search filter result is displayed as a field in the search columns or in the Overview, Details, Events, Alerts, or Contents tabs.

There are search filters that are not displayed but you can still use them to filter the audit trails. For example, you can search for active connections using the active search filter, and search results are listed accordingly, but there is no active field displayed in the search table or in the Overview, Details, Events, Alerts, or Contents tabs.

Searching in the contents of audit trails

 NOTE:

This feature is available only if auditing and content indexing was requested for the connection.

For more information, see Configuring the internal indexer.

You can search in the contents of the audit trails as follows:

  • From your browser: Use this method to find all the sessions containing your search query.

    Enter the screen.content: expression search filter in the Search query field. For example: screen.content="exit". The search returns all the sessions where exit was on the screen.

  • From the Safeguard Desktop Player application: Use this method to find the exact location of the search query within a specific audit trail.

    Download the relevant audit trail, open it in the Safeguard Desktop Player application, and use the Search feature. You can also search in the contents of the audit trails for trails of graphical sessions created and indexed with One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) 6.0.

There are various ways you can refine your content query, you can:

  • use wildcards

  • use boolean expressions

  • search in the commands of terminal connections (for example, command:"sudo su")

  • search in the window titles of graphical connections (for example, title:settings)

Search query examples

The following sections provide examples for different search queries.

For details on how to use more complex keyphrases that are not covered in this guide, see the Apache Lucene documentation.

Searching for exact matches

By default, One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) searches for keywords as whole words and returns only exact matches. Note that if your search keywords include special characters, you must escape them with a backslash (\) character. For details on special characters, see Searching for special characters. The following characters are special characters: + - & | ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \ /

Example: Searching for exact matches
Search expression example
Matches example
Does not match

examples

example.com

query-by-example

exam

To search for an exact phrase, enclose the search keywords in double quotes.

Search expression "example command"
Matches example command
Does not match

example

command

example: command

To search for a string that includes a backslash characters, for example, a Windows path, use two backslashes (\\).

Search expression C\:\\Windows
Matches

C:\Windows
Combining search keywords

You can use boolean operators – AND, OR, NOT, and + (required), – to combine search keywords. More complex search expressions can also be constructed with parentheses. If you enter multiple keywords,

Example: Combining keywords in search
Search expression keyword1 AND keyword2
Matches (returns hits that contain both keywords)
Search expression keyword1 OR keyword2
Matches (returns hits that contain at least one of the keywords)
Search expression "keyword1 keyword2" NOT "keyword2 keyword3"
Matches (returns hits that contain the first phrase, but not the second)
Search expression +keyword1 keyword2
Matches (returns hits that contain keyword1, and may contain keyword2)

To search for expressions that can be interpreted as boolean operators (for example: AND), use the following format: "AND".

Example: Using parentheses in search

Use parentheses to create more complex search expressions:

Search expression (keyword1 OR keyword2) AND keyword3
Matches (returns hits that contain either keyword1 and keyword3, or keyword2 and keyword3)
Using wildcard searches

You can use the ? and * wildcards in your search expressions.

Example: Using wildcard ? in search

The ? (question mark) wildcard means exactly one arbitrary character. Note that it does not work for finding non-UTF-8 or multibyte characters. If you want to search for these characters, the expression ?? might work, or you can use the * wildcard instead.

You cannot use a * or ? symbol as the first character of a search.

Searching for special characters

To search for the special characters, for example, question mark (?), asterisk (*), backslash (\) or whitespace ( ) characters, you must prefix these characters with a backslash (\). Any character after a backslash is handled as character to be searched for. The following characters are special characters: + - & | ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \ /

Example: Searching for special characters

To search for a special character, use a backslash (\).

Searching in commands and window titles

For terminal connections, use the command: prefix to search only in the commands (excluding screen content). For graphical connections, use the title: prefix to search only in the window titles (excluding screen content). To exclude search results that are commands or window titles, use the following format: keyword AND NOT title:[* TO *].

You can also combine these search filters with other expressions and wildcards, for example, title:properties AND gateway.

Example: Searching in commands and window titles
Search expression command:"sudo su"
Matches

sudo su as a terminal command

Does not match sudo su in general screen content
Search expression title:settings
Matches

settings appearing in the title of an active window

Does not match settings in general screen content

To find an expression in the screen content and exclude search results from the commands or window titles, see the following example.

Search expression properties AND NOT title:[* TO *]
Matches

properties appearing in the screen content, but not as a window title.

Does not match properties in window titles.

You can also combine these search filters with other expressions and wildcards.

Search expression title:properties AND gateway
Matches

A screen where properties appears in the window title, and gateway in the screen content (or as part of the window title).

Does not match

Screens where both properties and gateway appear, but properties is not in the window title.
Searching for fuzzy matches

Fuzzy search uses the tilde ~ symbol at the end of a single keyword to find hits that contain words with similar spelling to the keyword.

Example: Searching for fuzzy matches
Search expression roam~
Matches

roams

foam
Proximity search

Proximity search uses the tilde ~ symbol at the end of a phrase to find keywords from the phrase that are within the specified distance from each other.

Example: Proximity search
Search expression "keyword1 keyword2"~10
Matches (returns hits that contain keyword1 and keyword2 within 10 words from each other)
Adjusting the relevance of search terms

By default, every keyword or phrase of a search expression is treated as equal. Use the caret ^ symbol to make a keyword or expression more important than the others.

Example: Adjusting the relevance of search terms
Search expression keyword1^4 keyword2
Matches (returns hits that contain keyword1 and keyword2, but keyword1 is 4-times more relevant)
Search expression "keyword1 keyword2"^5 "keyword3 keyword4"
Matches (returns hits that contain keyword1 keyword2 and keyword3 keyword4, but keyword1 keyword2 is 5-times more relevant)

  3. To exclude items from the pie chart, click the icon next to the metadata you want to exclude.

    For example, if you want to exclude results by a user called testbot, select the icon next to the item.

    Figure 225: Search — Excluding items from the pie chart

    The pie chart now does not display results for the excluded item. The percentages always add up to 100%.

    You can continue to restrict or refine your search results and view statistics as required.
