Jarno86 Hello, just curious, how did you come to the conclusion this alert was triggered because of an Outlook Profile?

@modencloud1 This is probably the case that Jarno86 looked in the MCAS dashboard and there it is listed as a user with high upload. So you start to investigate why this user is uploading so much. Then when you dive deeper you see that it is e-mail related. Next steps is to ask the user (director) why this is. As the user did not have a valid reason why this is. You start digging deeper. So they found out the profile sync was out of sync. Why this is is to much to remediate -> so solution is to scratch the profile and rebuild it. Then you see in the MCAS the user is syncing regular and all is ok.
