Use of meta:source nodes
Synapse-VirusTotal uses a meta:source node and -(seen)> light
weight edges to track nodes observed from the VirusTotal API.

Storm can be used to filter nodes to include/exclude nodes which have been observed by Synapse-VirusTotal. The following example shows how to filter the results of a query to include only results observed by Synapse-VirusTotal:
> hash:sha256#myhash -> file:bytes +{ <(seen)- meta:source=acb670cd23617d825418435c8061e622 }
