Which of the following alert types is the most likely to be ignored over time?

A false positive is an alert that incorrectly indicates a threat when no actual threat exists. Over time, a high volume of false positives can lead to "alert fatigue," causing security analysts to become desensitized and potentially ignore legitimate alerts, including true positives. True positives are correct alerts indicating a real threat and are crucial for security. True negatives are correct non-alerts, meaning no threat is present and no alert is generated, which is an ideal state. False negatives are missed threats, where a real threat occurs but no alert is generated, posing a significant security risk.
