{elastic-sec} offers several features to help reduce the number of notifications and alerts generated by your detection rules. This table provides a general comparison of these features, with links for more details:

a| **_Stops a specific rule's notification actions from running_**.
15+
16+
Use to avoid unnecessary notifications from a specific rule. The rule continues to run and generate alerts during the snooze period, but its <<rule-response-action,notification actions>> don't run.

| <<maintenance-windows,Maintenance window>>

a| **_Prevents all rules' notification actions from running_**.
20+
21+
Use to avoid false alarms and unnecessary notifications during planned outages. All rules continue to run and generate alerts during the maintenance window, but their <<security-rules-create,notification actions>> don't run.
22+
23+
| <<security-alert-suppression,Alert suppression>>
24+
a| **_Reduces repeated or duplicate alerts_**.
25+
26+
Use to reduce the number of alerts created when a rule meets its criteria repeatedly. Duplicate qualifying events are grouped, and only one alert is created for each group.
27+
28+
| <<security-rule-exceptions,Rule exception>>
29+
a| **_Prevents a rule from creating alerts under specific conditions_**.
30+
31+
Use to reduce false positive alerts by preventing trusted processes and network activity from generating unnecessary alerts. You can configure an exception to be used by a single rule or shared among multiple rules, but they typically don't affect _all_ rules.
