Please take your time to explain your use-case properly. This is a bad description without any information, i.e.

- Full explanation of your use-case
- How does your data look like
- When should an alert be triggered
- What is the definition of a brute force attack inside of your dataset
- What is the definition of a dos force attack inside of your dataset

Just dumping such a kind of very generic question will not result in any help.
