Article Summary

Overview

A false positive refers to an Indicator that has been erroneously classified as malicious. ThreatConnect® allows users to report false positives, although this feature is limited to once a day per Indicator per user; thus, different users may report the same Indicator once on the same day. The status of the Event Group can also be set to “False Positive,” and, if desired, all Indicators associated to the Event can be marked as false positives.
