    Hello drivesafely,

     

    The Alerts page (https://security.microsoft.com/alerts) supports filtering by Product name, which can be helpful if you're looking for MDE alerts without specifying the exact source within MDE product. You can achieve that by clicking on the "Add filter" option and choose Product name.

    If you're still looking for Detection Source filter, you can export the Alerts page and filter in Excel.

     

    Or, to filter alerts by detection source, you can use the following Advanced Hunting query:

    AlertInfo
    | where DetectionSource == "Source"
    | project AlertId, Timestamp, DetectionSource, Title, Severity, Category
    | sort by Timestamp desc

     

    The quarantine location you mentioned for MDAV is correct. Noting that it is recommended to only interact with Quarantine folder through Microsoft Defender/Windows Security App.

     

    Best regards,

    Adel
