Question 1 of 30

In a network security environment, a security analyst is reviewing alerts generated by a Sourcefire IPS system. The analyst notices that a significant number of alerts are being triggered by a specific signature that is intended to detect SQL injection attacks. However, upon further investigation, the analyst finds that many of these alerts are false positives, as they are triggered by legitimate application behavior. What steps should the analyst take to address the signature issues while maintaining effective security posture?

Tune the signature to reduce false positives by adjusting its parameters or thresholds.

Disable the signature entirely to prevent any alerts from being generated.

Increase the logging level for the signature to gather more data on the alerts.

Ignore the alerts, assuming they are not significant enough to warrant action.
