Update NIST Matches for a Discovery Job

The Ipro NIST Loader can be used to update the NIST NSRL references.

  1. If the NIST database was loaded or updates were applied to an existing NIST database, click the Update NIST Matches button once the Discovery Job completes.
  2. If discovery comparison of NIST takes place on the Discovery Job, a message displays to the right of NIST Match:
    • If completed, the message displayed is: "Matched" and includes the date completed.
    • If there is no NIST database, the message displayed is: "Unmatched" .

The Update NIST Matches option allows Discovery Jobs to flag additional items to be filtered. If the NIST database is loaded after the Discovery Job runs, then this can be utilized to apply flags to Items with same NIST Hash. Set up the Rule in the Flex Processor Rules Manager Processing or Data Extract Job in order for the Rules to be applied and filtered. If the NIST database is established, the flag of files matching Hash values will automatically occur when the Discovery Job starts.
