Alert Verification

Alert verification is the step in the alert management process where the validity of an alert is confirmed. This involves checking whether the alert is a true positive that requires action or a false positive that can be dismissed. Verification helps ensure that resources are not wasted on unnecessary alerts and that critical issues receive the attention they need.

A thorough alert verification process supports better decision-making, improves response times, and reduces the risk of alert fatigue within teams. It is an important part of maintaining an effective compliance and security protocol.
