Explanation:
BD
A false negative, however, is when there is malicious traffic on the network, and for whatever reason the IPS/
IDS did not trigger an alert, so there is no visual indicator (at least from the IPS/IDS system) that anything
negative is going on. In the case of a false negative, you must use some third-party or external system to
alert you to the problem at hand, such as syslog messages from a network device.
