Are duplicate alerts allowed for Custom Alerts in CrowdStrike Falcon?

In the context of Custom Alerts within the CrowdStrike Falcon platform, it is correct that duplicate alerts are not permitted. This design choice is intended to streamline incident management and reduce noise in the alerting system. When a duplicate alert is generated, it can lead to confusion and complicate the analysis and response efforts by security teams. Therefore, preventing duplicates helps ensure that each alert is unique, making it easier for analysts to prioritize and respond to potential threats effectively.

The platform aims to deliver actionable and relevant alerts to its users, and by not allowing duplicates, it minimizes alert fatigue and enhances the overall threat detection effectiveness. This adherence to alert uniqueness allows security professionals to focus their efforts on genuinely distinct incidents, ensuring more efficient use of resources in threat response.
