Cisco AMP for Endpoints labeling Path of Exile as malware!

If you happen to be behind a network administrator controlled network using "Cisco AMP for Endpoints" to monitor traffic, Cisco is now labeling pathofexile.exe as malware and auto deleting the .exe file.
More specifically, it pinpoints this as the problem:

"
Detection: W32.DFC.MalParent
File: PathOfExile.exe
File path: E:\Gaming\Path of Exile\PathOfExile.exe
Detection SHA-256: 97937cc18600a574d2c5c4e11a2c53f27e5e78afd2ecb04318979bce5866814b

The installer was downloaded directly from Path of Exile's website. I am curious what the W32.DFC.MalParent file is?
I have played for several years and never had this issue. I realize this might be a Cisco problem labeling a false positive.
I really hope this gets fixed so I can login in and play again.
