[Snort-users] False positive rate in sfportscan

Subject: [Snort-users] False positive rate in sfportscan
Date: Fri, 03 Jun 2005 19:20:23 +0200
Hi

I have been experimenting with sfportscan and notice that sensitivity level Medium produces more false positives than sensitivity level High. If I have understood how sfportscan works, this should be the other way around.

Can anyone offer an explanation on why these results are observed?

Thanks,
Bjarte
