Which alert covers detected network attacks?

• A. Network Attack Alerts
• B. Intrusion Attempt Alerts
• C. Indicators of Attack Alerts
• D. Protection Errors Alerts

Answer: (A)

Detecting network threats relies on an alert category that focuses on events happening over the network. Network Attack Alerts fire when traffic patterns match known attack techniques or suspicious activity targeting network services, so they surface the exact kind of events that indicate an attack is occurring across the network. This makes it the best fit for alerts about detected network attacks because the name directly describes network-based malicious activity and provides a clear signal for rapid response. Intrusion Attempt Alerts could cover attempts to breach systems but aren’t as specifically tied to network-level events. Indicators of Attack Alerts signal clues that an attack may be happening, not confirmed network attack events themselves. Protection Errors Alerts are about failures in protection components, not about attacks.
