The purpose of this exploratory study was to identify the cause and effect of alert fatigue and reduction methods, in order to improve cyber defense. A multidisciplinary approach using cognitive psychology and signal theory as the theoretical framework and clinical decision support systems as a conceptual model was applied. This approach satisfied the advisement by many studies to incorporate a socio-technical framework to human-machine interaction in cybersecurity settings. Despite state-of-the-art intrusion detection systems (IDS), cybercrime is on the rise, and data breaches are continually making headlines. Spending more money and hiring more cyber threat analysts are no longer adequate solutions. Studies have identified that alert fatigue is a major reason for successful data breaches. Alert fatigue is a phenomenon which is experienced by cyber threat analysts where alert overload affects their performance to detect and adequately respond to potential attacks. False positive alerts are a major contributor to the flood of alerts from IDS and hence alert fatigue. Based on the literature reviews, several alert detection methods were identified ranging in difficulty for implementation. The simplest methods are based in human factors such as integrated multiple threat data sources; using consistent, coordinated, and integrated IDS, and using audible alerts. A moderate method to immediately employ is deleting duplicate signatures. Last, a more complex method is to calibrate the specificity and sensitivity of the IDS according to the company's security policy and finance model.
