About Regular Expressions<br />

Common Policy Objects<br />

IMSVA treats all keyword expressions as regular expressions. IMSVA supports the<br />

following regular expressions.<br />

Tip: While keywords or expressions can be created during policy creation, Trend Micro<br />

recommends creating keywords or expressions before you begin creating policies.<br />

Characters<br />

REGULAR<br />

EXPRESSION<br />

DESCRIPTION<br />

. (dot) Any character (byte) except newline<br />

x The character 'x'<br />

\\ The character '\'<br />

\a The alert (bell) character (ASCII 0x07)<br />

\b 1. If this meta-symbol is within square brackets [] or<br />

by itself, it will be treated as the backspace<br />

character (ASCII 0x08). For example, [\b] or \b<br />

2. If this meta-symbol is at the beginning (or end) of<br />

a regular expression, it means any matched string<br />

of the regular expression must check whether the<br />

left (or right) side of the matched string is a<br />

boundary. For example,<br />

• \bluck > left side must be the boundary<br />

• luck\b > right side must be the boundary<br />

• \bluck\b > both sides must be the boundary<br />

3. If this meta-symbol appears in the middle of a<br />

regular expression, it will cause a syntax error.<br />

\f The form-feed character (ASCII 0x0C)<br />

\n The newline (line feed) character (ASCII 0x0A)<br />
