1. At least one non-transitory machine accessible storage medium having instructions stored thereon, the instructions when executed on a machine, cause the machine to:
- identify a range of values for each of a plurality of filter settings, wherein filter setting values define a level of tolerance for an associated classification of potential security violations in a network and the plurality of filter settings comprise a group of security settings and a group of policy settings;
cause presentation of a security control interface on a display device, the security control interface comprising a plurality of graphical security controls, each graphical security control representing a respective one of the plurality of filter settings and the corresponding range of values for the respective filter setting, wherein user adjustment of the range of values for each of the group of security settings is restricted to a respective subset of the corresponding range of values for the security setting, and each graphical security control in a subset of the plurality of graphical security controls representing the group of security settings and enabling user adjustment of the group of security settings indicates that the range of values for the corresponding security setting is restricted by presenting both the range of values permitted for the corresponding security setting and at least one of the range of values that is restricted for the corresponding security setting, and ranges of values for each filter setting in the group of policy settings are unconstrained;
receive a value for a particular one of the plurality of filter settings based on user interactions with a particular one of the plurality of graphical security controls corresponding to the particular filter setting;
adjust the particular filter setting based on the received value; and
cause communications in the network to be filtered based on the adjusted particular filter setting.

14. A method comprising:
-
identifying a range of values for each of a plurality of filter settings, wherein filter setting values define a level of tolerance for an associated classification of potential security violations in a network and the plurality of filter settings comprise a group of security settings and a group of policy settings; causing presentation of a security control interface on a display device, the security control interface comprising a plurality of graphical security controls, each graphical security control representing a respective one of the plurality of filter settings and the corresponding range of values for the respective filter setting, wherein user adjustment of the range of values for each of the group of security settings is restricted to a respective subset of the corresponding range of values for the security setting, and each graphical security control in a subset of the plurality of graphical security controls representing the group of security settings and enabling user adjustment of the setting group of security settings indicates that the range of values for the corresponding security setting is restricted by presenting both the range of values permitted for the corresponding security setting and at least one of the range of values that is restricted for the corresponding security setting, and ranges of values for each filter setting in the group of policy settings are unconstrained; receiving a value for a particular one of the plurality of filter settings based on user interactions with a particular one of the plurality of graphical security controls corresponding to the particular filter setting; adjusting the particular filter setting based on the received value; and causing communications in the network to be filtered based on the adjusted particular filter setting.

15. A system comprising:
-
at least one processor device; at least one memory element; and a security control interface adapted when executed by the at least one processor device to; present a security control interface including a plurality of interactive graphical security controls, each graphical security control representing a respective one of a plurality of filter settings and a corresponding range of values for each respective filter setting, wherein filter setting values define a level of tolerance for an associated classification of potential security violations, the plurality of filter settings comprise a group of security settings and a group of policy settings, and user adjustment of the range of values for each of the group of security settings is restricted to a respective subset of the corresponding range of values for the security setting, and each graphical security control in a subset of the plurality of graphical security controls represents a respective one of the group of security settings and enables user adjustment of the corresponding security setting, wherein each graphical security control in the subset is presented to indicate that the range of values for the corresponding security setting is restricted by presenting both the range of values permitted for the corresponding security setting and at least one of the range of values that is restricted for the corresponding security setting, wherein ranges of values for each filter setting in the group of policy settings are unconstrained; and accept user interactions with the graphical security controls to identify user specified values for corresponding filter settings, wherein user specification of filter settings causes modification to values of the filter settings; a security agent adapted to filter communications in a network according to the plurality of filter settings. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)
