Exclusions are primarily intended to mitigate affects on performance. They come at the penalty of reduced protection value. These restrictions allow you to limit this protection reduction by specifying circumstances under which the exclusion should apply. Contextual exclusions aren't suitable for addressing false positives in a reliable way. If you encounter a false positive, you can submit files for analysis through the [Microsoft Defender XDR](https://security.microsoft.com/) portal (subscription required) or through the [Microsoft Security Intelligence](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/filesubmission) website. For a temporary suppression method, consider creating a custom _allow_ indicator in [Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](indicator-file.md).
