InfoSec Insider Justin Jett shares his opinions on how to avoid false positive security threat fatigue before sets in and companies drop their guard.

In 2017, seven out of ten organizations said their security risks increased significantly, according to a Ponemon Institute study. This is no surprise given that last year organizations suffered the largest ransomware outbreak in history (WannaCry) and vulnerabilities such as Meltdown and Spectre came to light. These have caused many a headache for IT teams.

That has businesses looking for ways to remediate problems as they arise. One obstacle to that is dealing with a slew of false positives that can feel overwhelming and utterly impossible to deal with. Getting past the false positives to actionable data is what’s needed and can be closer at hand than one might think.
