[Snort-users] False positives and false negatives

[maged shaker <maged.shaker@valuesys.net>]

Dear all 
How can  reduce the  false positives are alerts generated by an IDS ?
which the additional tool or plug-in  can do that ,so there are problems because they create alert noise that can hide a real attack,  and what the additional tool can do that
How can detect the false negative "real attack "  that was missed by the IDS ? 


Thanks
