Rule RegEx - Contains a list of previously created Rule RegEx sets. Rule RegEx (regular expression) is a pattern that describes a certain syntax of text. Regular expressions allow you to compare against a specific string of words instead of comparing to every possible permutation of multiple words.

Delete - deletes the selected data set.
Add Rule Data or Rule RegEx

Add New button at the lower right side of the screen.Select the type of data set you want to create. You can select between Rule Data and Rule RegEx.
Rule Data
Rule RegEx
Separate each new value with a new line.
Note
A rule data set can consist of a single word.
The RegEx parser does not require you to use the traditional forward slashes around a regular expression. These will automatically be added to your pattern when the RegEx is processed.
Valid regular expressions:
^.+\.(?:(?:[dD][oO][cC][xX]?))$ \bpass\b \b4\d{3}([\ \-]?)\d{4}\1\d{4}\1\d{4}\b(?!([^<]+)?>) \[secure\]Note
Unlike Rule Data, a Rule RegEx should be kept to a single line. If your regular expression needs to detect the new line character, you can use \n.
