Given answer is correct. To avoid alert fatigue, Defender for Cloud limits the volume of outgoing mails. For each subscription, Defender for Cloud sends: approximately four emails per day for high-severity alerts approximately two emails per day for medium-severity alerts approximately one email per day for low-severity alerts https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/configure-email-notifications

High-severity alerts: 01:01 - Successful RDP brute force attack 06:10 - Suspicious process executed 09:00 - Malicious SQL activity 13:30 - Suspicious process executed 16:01 - Successful RDP brute force attack 23:25 - Modified system binary discovered in dump file 23:30 - Malicious SQL activity RDP related: 2 Overall: 4 (due to the limit) Medium-severity alerts: 01:00 - Failed RDP brute force attack 14:00 - Failed RDP brute force attack RDP related: 2 Overall: 2 Low-severity alerts: 11:15 - Network communication with a malicious machine detected 23:20 - Possible outgoing spam activity detected RDP related: 0 Overall: 1 (due to the limit) So the answer is: RDP = 2 + 2 + 0 = 4 Overall = 4 + 2 +1 = 7

total 7 alert notification = 1:00 to 14:00 ( 4 High + 2 Medium + 1 Low) total RDP bruteforce alert during that time = 3 ( 1 High (01:01) + 2 Medium (01:00, 14:00) ) So the answer is 3 / 7 Ref: Email Frequency : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/configure-email-notifications#email-frequency

Refer to screenshot of Configure email notifications (URL below): You will receive a maximum of one email per 6 hours for high-severity alerts, one email per 12 hours for medium- severity alerts, and one email per 24 hours for low-severity alerts. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/media/configure-email-notifications/email-notification-settings.png Answer: Box 1: 4 Box 2: 7

Based on the logic you provided, we only receive a high alert every 6 hours and a medium alert every 12 hours. Starting at 0:00 till 6:00 you get 1 high and 1 med alert for RDP. After 12:00, since the suspicious activity alert fired first at 13:30, it raises a high alert already, leaving only 1 med alert available for use by RDP event. The high alert RDP won't fire between 12:00 and 18:00. So the answer is 3 and 7.
