. Fill in these fields in the **Details** section:
.. `Name`: Enter a name for the event filter.
.. `Description`: Enter a filter description (optional).
. In the **Conditions** section, depending which page you're using to create the filter, either modify the pre-populated conditions or add new conditions to define how {elastic-sec} will filter events. Use these settings:
.. `Select operating system`: Select the appropriate operating system.
.. Select which kind of event filter you'd like to create: added:[8.15.0,Coming to {serverless-full}.]
* `Events`: Create a generic event filter that can match any event type. All matching events are excluded.
* `Process Descendants`: Create a filter that suppresses the descendant activity of a specified process. Events from the matched process will be ingested, but events from its descendant processes will be excluded.
+
This option adds the condition `event.category is process` to narrow the filter to process-type events. You can add more conditions to identify the process whose descendants you want to exclude.

.. `Field`: Select a field to identify the event being filtered.
.. `Operator`: Select an operator to define the condition. Available options are:
* `is`
