⚠️ These nested fields are JSON structure reference only. THOR's Sigma backend matches on top-level fields only. You cannot useIMAGE.PATH,IMAGE_PATH, orPARENT_INFO.PIDin Sigma rules. Object null-check syntax (FIELD: null) exists but matched all objects in THOR v11.0.0 testing — verify behavior before relying on it.
