The Easy Way to Get Information on Security Signatures

Get More information on your security Alerts.

When your Cisco appliance issues a security signature or alert, you may wonder how to get more information, or whether the message you’re seeing could be a “false positive.”

To get more information on such messages, simply go to the following website:

http://tools.cisco.com/security/center/search.x

If you type in the name or message that appears, be sure to change the dropdown next to Keywords to “exact phrase.” That narrows the results considerably, usually right down to the one exact security record you need.

Once you pull up the information on your message, look for the section on “Benign Triggers” to help assess whether you’re dealing with a false positive or a real security breach.

Note that this tool from Cisco also lets you search for security messages from Apache, HP, Microsoft, and Red Hat.
