Constant WARN-852 E-mails

270797lb
Hi Guys/Girls,

Our Sophos software box with Network Protection License keeps sending

WARN-852 emails about 5-10 times a day. These are Intrusion Prevention Alert (Packet Dropped) e-mails.

Not sure why we are bombarded with these every day.

Thanks in advance.

    Someone is attempting to exploit CVE-2014-7169 on your system.  It's an automated attack, just because they detected an open port.  IPS is blocking the attempts, so doing it's job.

    Thats good! Is there anyway it can stop alerting me about this specific attack? As all the Directors and myself get bombarded with them about 5-10 times a day
