Exporting and importing telemetry event filtering rules
Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes allows importing and exporting JSON files with telemetry event filtering rules.
Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes supports up to 1500 inclusion and exclusion rules for filtering telemetry events in total.
If event filtering rules already exist on the computer, Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes replaces these when importing.
Example: You can export the list of exclusions to an JSON file. Then you can modify the file to, for example, add a large number of event IDs. You can also use the export and import function to back up the event filters or to migrate the list to a different server.

Run a command line interpreter (for example, Command Prompt cmd.exe) with local administrator privileges.
To run the command, go to the folder where the kavshell.exe executable file is located. You can also add the executable file path to the %PATH% system variable and run the command without navigating to the application folder.
To export the event filters, run the following command:
KAVSHELL TELEMETRYFILTERS /EXPORT <file name>
If the command contains only the name of the file to which you want to export settings, the application places the file as follows:
If the path to kavshell.exe is added to the %PATH% system variable, the application places the file in the folder from which you run the command.
If you run the command from the application installation folder, the export will fail because the application's self-protection blocks the creation of a new file in the application folder. To export application settings to a file, enter the file path.
To import event filtering rules, run the following command:
KAVSHELL TELEMETRYFILTERS /IMPORT <full path to json file>
