An integrated circuit, and method of reviewing values of one or more signals occurring within that integrated circuit, are provided. The integrated circuit comprises processing logic for executing a program, and monitoring logic for reviewing values of one or more signals occurring within the integrated circuit as a result of execution of the program. The monitoring logic stores configuration data, which can be software programmed in relation to the signals to be monitored. Further, the monitoring logic makes use of a Bloom filter which, for a value to be reviewed, performs a hash operation on that value in order to reference the configuration data to determine whether that value is either definitely not a value within the range or is potentially a value within the range of values. If the value is determined to be within the set of values, then a trigger signal is generated which can be used to trigger a further monitoring process.
