We have some endpoint security applications that are triggering the built-in rule _Suspicious Lsass Process Access_. They are using Powershell to access the lsass process. I created a rule exception using the field _process.parent.name_ to not alert when it was one of the security products triggering the alert. The alerts are still generated despite the rule exceptions. I am wondering if a rule exception can only use the fields shown in the alert details, of which _process.parent.name_ is not included.

@bbreer we are seeing similar, thanks for posting.  
I can confirm that rule exceptions only work with fields shown in the alert details and adherence to ECS (elastic common schema).  
I posted about same rule triggering from a verified MSFT process and at face value seems suspicious.
