### Rule Tuning Type
False Positives - Reducing benign events mistakenly identified as threats.
### Description
Related to #3613
Receiving a very high rate of false positives for this rule.
The `host.id` is null for these alerts.
Rule is up to date with changes from https://github.com/elastic/detection-rules/pull/3790
We ran the following ES|QL query and see no datasets causing the alerts
```
from logs-*
| where host.id is not null and elastic_agent.id is not null
| stats hosts_per_agent = count_distinct
(host.id) by elastic_agent.id, data_stream.dataset
| where hosts_per_agent > 1
| sort hosts_per_agent desc | keep hosts_per_agent, data_stream.dataset
```
