 ## Examples
 
 ### Audit
 
-HardeningKitty performs an audit, saves the results in a CSV file and creates a log file. The files are automatically named and receive a timestamp. Using the parameters _ReportFile_ or _LogFile_, it is also possible to assign your own name and path.

+The _Filter_ parameter can be used to filter the hardening list. For this purpose the PowerShell ScriptBlock syntax must be used, for example `{ $_.ID -eq 4505 }`. The following elements are useful for filtering: ID, Category, Name, Method, and Severity.
