   A large enterprise has deployed an AI-based security platform that includes UEBA, malware analysis, and network traffic analysis. The platform generates a high volume of alerts. The SOC team is concerned about false positives, especially for alerts that combine behavioral anomalies with a new file download. They want to reduce false positives without missing real threats. Which approach is BEST?

   • ATune the AI models by feeding them labeled historical data to improve precision
   • BIncrease the alert threshold for all alerts to reduce volume
   • CManually review all alerts to identify false positives
   • DDisable behavioral analysis alerts and rely only on malware analysis
