Enterprise EDR: Inconsistent search results for excluded fields

Enterprise EDR: Inconsistent search results for excluded fields

Environment

  • Carbon Black Cloud Console: All Supported Versions
  • Enterprise EDR Sensor: All Supported Versions

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*))
