An organization has configured an IPS solution to use atomic alerts. What type of response will occur when a signature is detected?

• A counter starts and a summary alert is issued when the count reaches a preconfigured number.
• The TCP connection is reset.
• An alert is triggered each time a signature is detected.
• The interface that triggered the alert is shutdown.

Explanation: Atomic alerts are generated every time a signature triggers. A summary alert is a single alert that indicates multiple occurrences of the same signature from the same source address or port. Deny packet and deny flow actions do not automatically cause TCP reset actions to occur. Atomic alerts do not shut down interfaces.
