Additionally, to add an Endpoint exception to the Elastic {endpoint-sec} rule, there must be at least one {endpoint-sec} alert generated in the system. For non-production use, you can trigger a test alert using malware emulation techniques or tools, such as the Anti Malware Testfile from the https://www.eicar.org/[European Institute for Computer Anti-Virus Research (EICAR)]. |

Any thoughts on the EICAR testfile recommendation? It's mentioned in the originating bug PR & issue, but IMO it seems like a workaround for an edge case bug that we're mentioning in docs just in case someone encounters it. But on the other hand, it might still be a helpful testing strategy to recommend?
