StringFilterProperty Struct ​

A string filter for filtering AWS Security Hub CSPM findings.

Example ​

ts
// The code below shows an example of how to instantiate this type.
// The values are placeholders you should change.
import { aws_securityhub as securityhub } from 'aws-cdk-lib';
const stringFilterProperty: securityhub.CfnAutomationRule.StringFilterProperty = {
  comparison: 'comparison',
  value: 'value',
};

Properties ​

comparisonstringcomparisonstrcomparisonStringComparisonstringComparison*stringrequired#
The condition to apply to a string value when filtering Security Hub CSPM findings.
notes

To search for values that have the filter value, use one of the following comparison operators:

  • To search for values that include the filter value, use CONTAINS . For example, the filter Title CONTAINS CloudFront matches findings that have a Title that includes the string CloudFront.
  • To search for values that exactly match the filter value, use EQUALS . For example, the filter AwsAccountId EQUALS 123456789012 only matches findings that have an account ID of 123456789012 .
  • To search for values that start with the filter value, use PREFIX . For example, the filter ResourceRegion PREFIX us matches findings that have a ResourceRegion that starts with us . A ResourceRegion that starts with a different value, such as af , ap , or ca , doesn't match.

CONTAINS , EQUALS , and PREFIX filters on the same field are joined by OR . A finding matches if it matches any one of those filters. For example, the filters Title CONTAINS CloudFront OR Title CONTAINS CloudWatch match a finding that includes either CloudFront , CloudWatch , or both strings in the title.

To search for values that don’t have the filter value, use one of the following comparison operators:

  • To search for values that exclude the filter value, use NOT_CONTAINS . For example, the filter Title NOT_CONTAINS CloudFront matches findings that have a Title that excludes the string CloudFront.
  • To search for values other than the filter value, use NOT_EQUALS . For example, the filter AwsAccountId NOT_EQUALS 123456789012 only matches findings that have an account ID other than 123456789012 .
  • To search for values that don't start with the filter value, use PREFIX_NOT_EQUALS . For example, the filter ResourceRegion PREFIX_NOT_EQUALS us matches findings with a ResourceRegion that starts with a value other than us .

NOT_CONTAINS , NOT_EQUALS , and PREFIX_NOT_EQUALS filters on the same field are joined by AND . A finding matches only if it matches all of those filters. For example, the filters Title NOT_CONTAINS CloudFront AND Title NOT_CONTAINS CloudWatch match a finding that excludes both CloudFront and CloudWatch in the title.

You can’t have both a CONTAINS filter and a NOT_CONTAINS filter on the same field. Similarly, you can't provide both an EQUALS filter and a NOT_EQUALS or PREFIX_NOT_EQUALS filter on the same field. Combining filters in this way returns an error. CONTAINS filters can only be used with other CONTAINS filters. NOT_CONTAINS filters can only be used with other NOT_CONTAINS filters.

You can combine PREFIX filters with NOT_EQUALS or PREFIX_NOT_EQUALS filters for the same field. Security Hub CSPM first processes the PREFIX filters, and then the NOT_EQUALS or PREFIX_NOT_EQUALS filters.

For example, for the following filters, Security Hub CSPM first identifies findings that have resource types that start with either AwsIam or AwsEc2 . It then excludes findings that have a resource type of AwsIamPolicy and findings that have a resource type of AwsEc2NetworkInterface .

  • ResourceType PREFIX AwsIam
  • ResourceType PREFIX AwsEc2
  • ResourceType NOT_EQUALS AwsIamPolicy
  • ResourceType NOT_EQUALS AwsEc2NetworkInterface

CONTAINS and NOT_CONTAINS operators can be used only with automation rules V1. CONTAINS_WORD operator is only supported in GetFindingsV2 , GetFindingStatisticsV2 , GetResourcesV2 , and GetResourceStatisticsV2 APIs. For more information, see Automation rules in the AWS Security Hub CSPM User Guide .

The string filter value.

Filter values are case sensitive. For example, the product name for control-based findings is Security Hub CSPM . If you provide security hub as the filter value, there's no match.
