Which of the following is the MOST important consideration when implementing an intrusion
detection system (IDS)?
A.
Tuning
B.
Patching
C.
Encryption
D.
Packet filtering
Explanation:
If an intrusion detection system (IDS) is not properly tuned it will generate an unacceptable
number of false positives and/or fail to sound an alarm when an actual attack is underway.
Patching is more related to operating system hardening, while encryption and packet filtering
would not be as relevant.
