An оrgаnizаtiоn is using аn intrusiоn detection system (IDS).  Employees have been spending many hours each week investigating IDS alerts, 99% of which turn out to be false.  A manager wants to reduce the manual effort spent on these false alerts, so he decides that the sensitivity of a sensor in the IDS should be decreased.  Explain the likely effect of this change on the number of false negative reports and the number of false positive reports produced by the system.  Also explain an important issue the manager should understand before the setting is changed, as discussed in a lecture in this course.
