You can use the powershell command Add-MPPreference -ExclusionPath[0] and ship a script with your app if you want. I do the same for Terraform providers - whenever a new version comes out, for a time the process can be randomly killed as I suppose a process that spawns a child process that starts talking to lots of endpoints looks somewhat suspicious.
