Answer

There is no specific rule in ARP that detects edited Excel files (eg: ~filename.xlsx) as suspicious file types.
 
Note:
  • To reduce false positives, it is important to adapt normal business operations to ensure ARP has sufficient data during the learning mode. 
  • This helps the system accurately distinguish between normal and suspicious activities by establishing a baseline of usual behavior patterns.
