Very large logs filled with events not from a user

I recently switched from the older security plugin to Core Activity + Core Security

The log file is filled with events coreactivity/option like the attached, from ‘Not a User’.
And grows very large (almost 15 GB and counting).

How do I filter out so that no events from ‘Not a User’ are logged?

    Hello,

    You can remove events from the database, that you don’t need, and you can disable any event fom being logged.

    Best to start here: https://www.dev4press.com/kb/article/coreactivity-panel-activity-events/

    On this panel, you have a Status toggle to disable events from logging. And, for each event or component you have a Thrash icon that will open a Tool to delete logs for that event from the database. When on Delete Tool panel, you have the period to delete events, and you can select the All Logged Data.

    As for the ‘Not A User’, plugin logs all sorts of events, many running in the WordPress even if visitors (not logged in) are visiting the website. It is essential to have them logged, because visitors (not a user) can attempt various malicious things. That is why the plugin has options to disable specific events you don’t need logged, and not every event is enabled by default anyway.

    Regards,
    Milan
