Abstract
Generating anonymized data from events are disclosed. Via a graphical user interface (GUI), an output dataset mode for an anonymized output dataset is received. The output dataset mode is stored or an active stream. The output dataset mode in anonymization configuration information. An anonymized output dataset is produced in accordance with the anonymization configuration information, where the output dataset comprises information related to at least a portion of a plurality of events, wherein the plurality of events each comprise a timestamp and a portion of machine data. Further, the GUI to displays the anonymized output dataset.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, via a graphical user interface (GUI), an output dataset mode for an anonymized output dataset, wherein the output dataset mode is stored or an active stream;
- storing the output dataset mode in anonymization configuration information;
- producing an anonymized output dataset in accordance with the anonymization configuration information, the output dataset comprising information related to at least a portion of a plurality of events, wherein the plurality of events each comprise a timestamp and a portion of machine data;
- and
- causing the GUI to display the anonymized output dataset.
A system comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processing device coupled with the memory to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, via a graphical user interface (GUI), an output dataset mode for an anonymized output dataset, wherein the output dataset mode is stored or an active stream;
- storing the output dataset mode in anonymization configuration information;
- producing an anonymized output dataset in accordance with the anonymization configuration information, the output dataset comprising information related to at least a portion of a plurality of events, wherein the plurality of events each comprise a timestamp and a portion of machine data;
- and
- causing the GUI to display the anonymized output dataset.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium encoding instructions thereon that, in response to execution by one or more processing devices, cause the one or more processing devices to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, via a graphical user interface (GUI), an output dataset mode for an anonymized output dataset, wherein the output dataset mode is stored or an active stream;
- storing the output dataset mode in anonymization configuration information;
- producing an anonymized output dataset in accordance with the anonymization configuration information, the output dataset comprising information related to at least a portion of a plurality of events, wherein the plurality of events each comprise a timestamp and a portion of machine data;
- and
- causing the GUI to display the anonymized output dataset.
