An organization has deployed a Unified Threat Management (UTM) device to consolidate multiple security functions. While reviewing security logs, it is noted that a specific alert keeps reoccurring, and it has been determined to be a false positive. In order to improve the efficiency of the security operations, what should be done to handle this situation without compromising the actual threat detection capability of the UTM?

  • Perform alert tuning specific to the false positive condition.

  • Increase the sensitivity of the UTM to capture more events.

  • Disable the alert to prevent further false positives.

  • Manually review all alerts generated by the UTM.
