Use the quick filters
Filters make it easy to highlight and isolate specific clusters of information you want to zero in on during an analysis.
They help you identify entities sharing properties and attributes, which in turn can disclose connections and links among entities.
By default, quick filters are switched off. To toggle quick filter visibility click the filter icon.
Most Intelligence Center views include a range of quick filters with selectable checkboxes or input fields to quickly filter content on the current view, and to show or hide specific subsets, based on the selected shared properties and attributes.
The number and type of available quick filters may vary: quick filters are enabled and they become available only when there are selectable values, and therefore filtering options, for the data points the filters process.
If the current view does not allow filtering based on, for example, dataset or TLP because no entities on the view belong to a dataset or have a TLP color code, the corresponding filters are disabled and they are not displayed.
This behavior applies to all filters.
Click a filter group name to expand the corresponding child elements with the selectable options.
Some filters with many options — for example, Dataset — feature a search input field with autocompletion.
If a filter includes the search field, you can start typing the names of the desired values to look them up without browsing through the option list.
You can stack and combine filters as you need.
About the Dataset filter
You can filter and search for entities by selecting one or more static datasets in the Dataset filter option available in most Intelligence Center views.
You cannot filter or search for entities by selecting dynamic datasets. Dynamic datasets are not included in the Dataset filter option available in most Intelligence Center views.
The Dataset filter is not available when the results do not include any entities belonging to at least one dataset.
Classification
