Hi experts,

I have started to see this alert some time ago on a VM sitting in Azure. Tried to troubleshoot it, made some research and turned out this is triggered by Defender reporting it’s own log files as malicious. At least that’s what I’ve found on several blogs. 

It will identify a “log” file looks like every time I run defender full scan. An example of the file and location is below:

Last few days, few more devices started to report the same… and I start to be a bit “nervous” about it. Is it a real malware? Is it really a defender bug?

Anyone experiencing the same issue? 

Thank you.
