Monitoring Servers for high CPU but do not alert if java, nginx or savscand are listed in the top ten processes

I am struggling to set up this type of alert. We have an alert that works when the CPU on a server goes above 90% but we were getting alerts all the time due to the same processes. Nginx, java and savscand, which naturally use a high amount of CPU, are pushing the CPU over 90% on a regular basis. What I would like is an alert that only alerts when the CPU is over 90% but not when java, nginx or savscand is the cause.
