Hello,

Browsing on the list of threats, i see many threats that repeat themself, only with different ID.

What does that mean?

Hi,

We differentiate sig by Threat ID. Would you list out some examples that you are seeing different ID but same sig description?

Hi all,

Running 7.0.9 with App/Thr version 660-3840.

ID: 40021 MS-RDP Brute Force Attempt

ID: 40026 MS-RDP Brute Force Attempt

In this situation, at this moment our system is not detecting MS-RDP attemps.

Last detection was at 11th January 17, just before update App/Thr file.

¿Are there any way to inicializate vulnerability protection any solution to this?

Thanks in advance.

@SChaouche,

This is usually done to avoid signature issues. There may be multiple different signatures for some of the same threats that get seperated out due to how the signatures that the threats actually trigger on would interact with eachother.
