Id	4902eddb-34f7-44a8-ac94-8486366e9494
Rulename	Excessive number of failed connections from a single source (ASIM Network Session schema)
Description	This rule identifies a single source that generates an excessive amount of failed connections. Modify the threshold to change the sensitivity of the rule: the higher the threshold, the less sensitive is the rule and less incidents will be generated. This analytic rule uses ASIM and supports any built-in or custom source that supports the ASIM NetworkSession schema
