Delete Signals

To manually delete signals, the user account you use to access Cytomic Orion must have the Delete signals and manage automatic signal deletion rules permission assigned to its role. For more information about roles and permissions, see Understanding Permissions.

Reduce ‘noise’ in lists by removing signals that you determine to be false positives or unimportant. When you delete a signal, Cytomic Orion moves it to the recycle bin for 30 days, after which it deletes the signal permanently.

Only signals that are not assigned to an investigation or an incident can be deleted.
