Security Plus - False Positive vs False Negative (Incorrect content??)

Scott Gendron

Am I crazy, or did Wes get false positive and false negative backwards?

Go to 27 min and 20 seconds:

Thank you, thank you for bringing this to my attention, this is wrong and needs corrected:

False = Incorrect
True = Correct
Positive = Malicious
Negative = Non-malicious

False Positive = Incorrectly identified as malicious

This happens a lot when a system is first put into operation as the device learns

False Negative = Incorrectly identified as non-malicious

True Positive = Correctly identified as malicious

True Negative = Correctly identified as non-malicious

We will correct my crossed wires there ASAP with correction in the show notes immediately. Not sure why I got the diagram wrong but it is very wrong.
