These 3 attributes take up a large number of entries in the Mitigator dictionary. They are not being used by any mitigator rules.
Question: Can these attributes be added to the prune-attributes field for Mitigator – or does Mitigator need them internally for some other reason?
Resolution
Explanation:
As long as attributes also have associated keys they cannot be removed as Keys are used in r2b2(Report Builder) and SilverSurfer. When these built-in attributes were pruned in testing, the system produced an error. RSA has determined that these built-in Attributes are required and cannot be added to the prune-attributes field for Mitigator.
