# Exclusion page

The **Exclusion** page is where you add or edit a process to temporarily exclude it from AAC rules.

 
 

> [!NOTE]
> Caution
> 
> To avoid security risks, remove a global exclusion immediately after use. Failure to remove a global exclusion leaves your systems vulnerable to malware attacks.

 
 

When specifying exclusions, consider the following:

 
 

- You must specify at least one identifier: 
 **Process MD5 hash** or 
 **Signer certificate MD5 hash**.
- If you specify more than one identifier, all identifiers apply.
- If you specify more than one identifier and they don't match, the exclusion is invalid. For example, the file name and MD5 hash don't apply to the same file.
- Exclusions are case insensitive.
- Wildcards are not allowed.
