What are two required components of a rule?

A FortiSIEM rule requires detection logic and at least one subpattern structure to evaluate matching events. The FortiSIEM Study Guide explains that a single subpattern rule example consists of filter, aggregate, and group-by sections. It states: “The subpattern, ExcessVPNLoginFailure, consists of three components: Filter, Aggregate, Group By.” That confirms that a subpattern is a core rule component. The FortiSIEM 7.4 User Guide also identifies Detection Technology as part of rule definition and built-in rule metadata. Detection Technology describes the detection method used by the rule, such as correlation, profiling, machine learning, or correlation using lookup tables. Exception policy is not required; it is used to suppress or tune matches under specific conditions. Clear policy is also not required; it controls how an incident can be cleared or auto-cleared after triggering. Therefore, the required components among the listed options are Subpattern and Detection Technology. Without them, the rule lacks both the event-detection structure and the detection-method classification needed for rule evaluation.
