Microsoft SQL

The asterisk (*) means that the filter matches anything. There is no limitation as to adding the asterisk before a schema or not. For example, the filter can be effective with these two expressions:
⚫️ testddc:1433/testschema
⚫️ */testschema
You are omitting the database+port in the second expression - it means that if there is only one schema named testschema or the scan has only that database added as datastore, the expressions are equivalent. If you add more than one mssql databases as datastores in the scan and there are more than one schema named testschema, then the filters are not equivalent because with the second one all testchema schemes are filtered, not in the first expression (only the testschema schema in testddc database).

Exclude location by prefix

• Database: testddc:1433

  Supported but not useful (the database name is specified when the datastore is instanciated so no meaning then to filter out the whole db).

• Schema: testddc:1433/testschema

  The schema is aways relative to what is called the catalog (ie the database name and the port).
  The same filter can be written also as */testschema but using testschema only is not effective as a prefix.

• Table: testddc:1433/testschema/mytable

  The entire complete path should be specified or optionally omitted using a *. A filter like */mytable has the side effect of being all the tables whose name is mytable being filtered - no matter which schema they belong to.

• Column: N/S

Exclude location by sufix

• Database: testddc:1433

  Supported but not useful (the database name is specified when the datastore is instantiated so no meaning then to filter out the whole db).

• Schema: testddc:1433/testschema (As it is a suffix, testschema also works with the same effect)

• Table: testddc:1433/testschema/mytable

  If the table name is unique in all schemas mytable is enough to filter.
  If different schemas contain the same tablename then caution should be used.

• Column: N/S

Exclude locations by expression

• Database: testddc:1433

  Supported but not useful (the database name is specified when the datastore is instantiated so there is no point filtering out the whole db).

• Schema: testddc:1433/testschema

  Tthe schema is aways relative to what is called the catalog (i.e. the database name and the port). The same filter can be written also as /testschema but testschema* however it is not effective as a prefix.

• Table: testddc:1433/testschema/mytable

  The entire complete path should be specified or optionally omitted using a *. A filter like */mytable has the side effect of having all the tables whose name is mytable filtered, no matter which schema they belong to.

Mail

G-Mail

Exclude location by prefix

• User: datastorecicduser

• Account: - (User and Account seem to be the same thing)

• Folder/Label: datastorecicduser/inbox or *inbox

  Use lower case for folder names.
  Labels are not supported as label id is required to filter.
  The second option would scan the inbox of every user.
  Question: I am filtering Gmail scan by labels - why am I not getting expected results? Answer: For the default system labels, Gmail creates some folders that do not match the label name. Please look at Gmail documentation to learn the right labels to filter data objects in a Gmail scan.

• File:

  1. datastorecicduser/inbox/mydata filter test data/Mon, 23 Aug 2021 10:54:40 +0530/50-contacts.csv or
  2. datastorecicduser/inbox/mydata filter test data/*/50-contacts.csv or
  3. datastorecicduser/inbox/test filter test data or
  4. datastorecicduser/Label_4800715244570918733/test filter test data/ or
  5. datastorecicduser/*/mydata filter test data/

  The second example would be recommened to the user to avoid manully checking email's date and time and converitng it to the required format.
  The third option is used if you want to scan a specific email and all its content.
  As mentioned in the previous comment, label filters need label id as mentioned in the fourth example.
  The user can replace label id with '*', as shown in the fifth example, if he is scanning a specific label and wants to filter a specific email or file.
  The fourth and fifth example can be used similarly for exclude_suffix and exclude_expression.

WORD

• Legacy: Legacy filename extensions denote binary Microsoft Word formatting that became outdated with the release of Microsoft Office 2007. Although the latest version of Microsoft Word can still open them, they are no longer developed. Legacy filename extensions include:

  • .doc – Legacy Word document; Microsoft Office refers to them as "Microsoft Word 97 – 2003 Document"
  • .dot – Legacy Word templates; officially designated "Microsoft Word 97 – 2003 Template"
  • .wbk – Legacy Word document backup; referred as "Microsoft Word Backup Document"

• OOXML: Office Open XML (OOXML) format was introduced with Microsoft Office 2007 and became the default format of Microsoft Word ever since. Pertaining file extensions include:

  • .docx – Word document
  • .docm – Word macro-enabled document; same as docx, but may contain macros and scripts
  • .dotx – Word template
  • .dotm – Word macro-enabled template; same as dotx, but may contain macros and scripts
  • .docb – Word binary document introduced in Microsoft Office 2007

EXCEL

  • .xls – Legacy Excel worksheets; officially designated "Microsoft Excel 97-2003 Worksheet"
  • .xlt – Legacy Excel templates; officially designated "Microsoft Excel 97-2003 Template"
  • .xlm – Legacy Excel macro

• OOXML: Office Open XML (OOXML) format was introduced with Microsoft Office 2007 and became the default format of Microsoft Excel ever since. Excel-related file extensions of this format include:

ACCESS

• Legacy:

  • .ade – Protected Access Data Project (not supported in 2013)
  • .adp - Access Data Project (not supported in 2013)
  • .mdb - Access Database (2003 and earlier)
  • .cdb - Access Database (Pocket Access for Windows CE)

  • .accdb – The file extension for the new Office Access 2007 file format. This takes the place of the MDB file extension
  • .accde – The file extension for Office Access 2007 files that are in "execute only" mode. ACCDE files have all Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) source code hidden. A user of an ACCDE file can only execute VBA code, but not view or modify it. ACCDE takes the place of the MDE file extension
  • .accdt – The file extension for Access Database Templates
  • .accdr – is a new file extension that enables you to open a database in runtime mode. By simply changing a database's file extension from .accdb to .accdr, you can create a "locked-down" version of your Office Access database. You can change the file extension back to .accdb to restore full functionality

Configuration Backup

You can back up and restore the DDC configuration by using the Backup/Restore functionality available in CipherTrust Manager. Such a backup will include the following elements:

• Data Stores

• Branch Locations

• Classification Profiles

• Infotypes

• Report definitions

This backup will not include the information about the scan executions.

Creating/Restoring the Configuration Backup

To create or restore a backup of your DDC configuration:

1. Log in to CipherTrust Manager.

2. Click the Admin Settings link on the dashboard.

3. Select Backups from the sidebar on the left. This will display the Backups screen.

4. To create a backup of your DDC configuration, click the Create Backup button.

5. To restore your DDC configuration from a backup, click the Upload Backup button.

For more details refer to these sections of the CipherTrust Manager as a Service documentation:

• CipherTrust Manager as a Service Backup

• CipherTrust Manager as a Service Scheduling Backups

• CipherTrust Manager as a Service Scheduler

Configuration Backup Limitations

• The configuration backup references the DDC Active Node. Restoring the backup to a different CipherTrust Manager cluster leaves DDC referencing an invalid node, and therefore without any valid active node.

• The configuration backup contains the definition of the DDC resources (such as the Scan or Data Store definitions). Restoring from a backup that does not contain a certain resource (for example, a Custom Classification Profile) or a resource version after a scan had been completed causes a TDP scan execution data to point to an invalid resource identifier.

  If you generate a report that points to the missing resource you may display incomplete data (such as not being able to display the resource name) and/or fail.

Creating/Restoring Backup of Scan Executions

To back up or restore the your Data Discovery and Classification scan executions data you need to access the DDC data stored in Hadoop. For details, refer to the Thales Data Platform Hadoop Backup section in the Thales Data Platform Administrator Guide.
