      • Asset type — Generate a query based on a certain type of asset.

      • Specific asset — Generate a query based on a specific asset.

   2. In the text box, type the asset type or specific node/asset you want to use for the query.

   3. (Optional) To apply filters to the asset query:

      1. Click the button.

         The Filters window appears.

      2. In the Parameter drop-down, select the parameter by which you want to filter the origin.

      3. In the Operator drop-down, select the operator to apply to the parameter.

      4. In the text box, type or select the value or values you want to use for the filter.

         Note: The values you can use differ depending on the parameter you selected.

      5. Click Apply and search.

         Attack Path Analysis applies the filter to the asset query.

4. (Optional) Click Add an Asset to add additional assets to the query.

   Attack Path Analysis returns any assets and/or asset groups that match the query you created. For more information on interacting with the data, see Interact with Asset Query Data.
