Apparatuses and methods to perform pattern matching are presented. In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises a memory to store a first pattern table comprising information indicative of whether a byte of input data matches a pattern and whether to ignore other matches of the pattern occur in remaining bytes of the input data. The apparatus further comprises one-byte match logic coupled to the memory, to determine, based on the information in the first pattern table, a one-byte match event with respect to the input data. The apparatus further comprises a control unit to filter the other matches of the pattern based on the information of the first pattern table.
