I think configuring alerts for only high priority systems could be effective. It might help us catch the critical threats without getting overwhelmed by noise.

Changing the alert method to text messages sounds interesting, but I wonder if that would really help with the volume of alerts we get.

I'm not entirely sure, but increasing staff might help manage the volume of alerts. However, it could be costly and might not solve the root issue.

I remember we discussed tuning IDS rules to reduce false positives in class. It seems like a good way to focus on the alerts that really matter.

Strategic dashboards seem like the most logical choice here. Senior management typically uses high-level, strategic tools to oversee the organization's performance and progress towards its objectives.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the details here. I need to make sure I understand the relationship between the hotel chain and the travel agency before I can determine their roles. Let me re-read this a few times.
