Hi SathyaNarayanan,
the only way is to filter events using a regex like the following

| rex field=suser ")?<suser_filtered>\w+)"

OR

| rex field=suser ")?<suser_filtered>[^ \\\|\!\"\£\$\%\&\/\(\)\=\?\^\'\*\+\,\.\;\:\-\_]+)"

Bye.
Giuseppe

Use a rex function to get the values out of the field you need, see Splunk Search Reference
