Components

The following table is a list of components found in the Target Details page:

Filter Panel

Select one or more filters in the Filter panel to show specific match locations in the results grid.

Sort Locations

Match locations within a Target can be sorted in the results grid using the ˄ and ˅ arrow at each column header.

Match Inspector

The Match Inspector window allows you to review the list of matches for a specific match location and evaluate the remediation options.

1. Go to the Target Details page.
2. Click on the arrow to the left of the Target name to expand and show all match locations within a Target.
3. (Optional) Sort the list of match locations by:
   • Location - Full path of the match location,
   • Owner - User with Owner permissions,
   • Status - Remediationstatus(es) for the match location, or

   Component	Description
   Data type matches	Displays the list of matches detected in the match location, sorted by data type.
   Match details	Displays samples and contextual data for the match. Click on View all info to see the metadata and a breakdown of data type matches for the match location.
   Match sample encoding	Select the encoding format to use for displaying contextual data for the match. Encoding options: Plain text (ASCII), EBCDIC (used in IBM mainframes), Hexadecimal.

   Contextual data

   Contextual data is the data surrounding the matches found in a match location. Reviewing contextual data may be helpful in determining if the match itself is genuine, since matches are always masked dynamically when presented on the Web Console.

   To display contextual data around matches, make sure this option is selected when you schedule a scan.

   Scanning EBCDIC-based systems can be enabled in Data Type Profiles.

See Remediation for more information.

Trash

You can use the Trash function to remove scan results for selected data types in the Target.

Using the Trash button to remove scan results does not delete the actual match data on the Target. If no remedial action was taken, the scan results that were trashed would be detected as match locations if a scan is executed again on the Target.

To delete scan results:

1. In the Target Details page, click the Filter button .
2. Select one or more data type filters in the Filter panel to display only match locations that contain the selected data type(s).
3. Click the Trash button to remove scan results for the selected data type(s).
4. Enter a name in the Confirm Removal of Data Type field.
5. Click Confirm.

Inaccessible Locations

When ER2 encounters any error when accessing files, folders and drives on a Target during a scan, they are logged as Inaccessible Locations. The log of inaccessible locations should be reviewed to ensure there are no issues in the scan setup, such as scanning a Target using credentials with insufficient permissions.

1. Log in to the ER2 Web Console.
2. Go to the Targets page and click on a Target.
3. In the Target Details page, click the Inaccessible Locations button to view the list of inaccessible locations for the Target.

You can also view the list of inaccessible locations from the Targets page.
