Create a File Parameter Collection

Once the file scan has run on the reference system(s) you will have a list of all executables in the Windows directories that are not contained in a security catalog.

1. In the Security Manager Console, click the Policies tab.
2. In the left pane, navigate to the Arellia Solutions > Application Control > Filters > Inventory Filters.
3. Right-click the Inventory Filters folder.
4. Click New > File Scan Results Filter (Policy).
   
5. Give the filter a name and optional description.
6. Click OK.

8. Next to Reporting Filter click the Select link and choose the reporting filter you configured in the previous steps.
