Query Builder

Key Concepts:

  • Domain –  a set of tables that is linked based on the purpose or function of the information in those tables
    • Access Domain – Tables related to access of data on a monitored database
    • Policy Violation domain – Tables related to policy violation events as defined by the policy
    • Aggregation/Archive Domain – Tables related to aggregation processes running on the appliance
  • Entity – a label for one table within a domain
  • Attributes – one field within an entity
  • Main Entity – the entity that is the focus of the query. That will be one row in the report for each row in the table corresponding to the main entity. 

    Tips for creating a useful Query:

    • “Access Rule Description” attribute
      • Fill SQL Entity -> Access Rule Description 
      • Policy violations Domain -> Policy Rule Violation Entity -> Access Rule Description
    • “Session Ignored” attribute 
      • Session Entity -> Session Ignored
    • Export to CSV and filter from there
      • useful with many results
    • Predefined queries
      • Search  in the main entity for predefined queries
      • Clone existing queries
