Let’s be honest, alert fatigue is a real thing and anyone telling you otherwise is flat out lying. If you have tools generating tens or thousands of daily alerts, eventually people will burn out and simply start ignoring alerts. Even if you have enough team members to divvy up alert reviews, the approach only works for a while. Trouble is, false positives are always generated when managing alerts, and people will eventually ignore false positives.

Alert fatigue occurs when people become desensitized to the overwhelming number of alerts they receive and are expected to respond to. Even though these alerts are typically easy to respond to, it is the sheer number of them that ultimately causes people to feel fatigued. The higher the number of alerts, the more likely it is that employees are likely to begin to ignore and potentially miss an important alert leading to bigger consequences.
