research_task:

  description: >

    Conduct in-depth analysis of 6 critical Microsoft Defender for Cloud alerts:

    1. Policy: Subnets should be associated with a Network Security Group

    2. Network-facing VMs should be protected with an NSG

    3. Privileged roles should not have permanent access at subscription/resource group levels

    4. Service Principals should not be assigned admin roles at subscription/resource group level

    5. Azure DDoS Protection Standard should be enabled

    6. Disabled accounts with read/write access should be removed


    For each alert, analyze:

    - Potential security risks if ignored

    - Business impact scenarios

    - Recommended remediation steps

    - Azure-native implementation methods

  expected_output: >

    Structured markdown document containing for each alert:

    

    - ### [Alert Title]

      **Risk Summary**: <50-word explanation of vulnerability>

      **Criticality Level**: (High/Medium/Low)

      **Recommended Actions**:

      - Action 1 with Azure implementation steps

      - Action 2 with Azure-specific configuration guidance

      **Microsoft Documentation**: [Official Learn Link](verified.microsoft.com/link-specific-to-control)


    Ensure links are current Microsoft Learn references specific to each security control.
