Symptoms
Search results for queries the exclude a field value are still returned
Cause
Events contain empty field values in some segments. The empty field will not match with the negated query and will be returned.
Resolution
Include a wildcard search on the field to ensure only fields that have any value are returned
Ex. process_name:powershell.exe AND ((process_internal_name:* NOT process_internal_name:powershell*) OR (process_product_name:* NOT process_product_name:powershell*))
