>To receive alerts/notifications when a user in the organization disables soft-delete for a vault, use [Azure Monitor alerts for Azure Backup](backup-azure-monitoring-built-in-monitor.md#azure-monitor-alerts-for-azure-backup). As the disable of soft-delete is a potential destructive operation, we recommend you to use alert system for this scenario to monitor all such operations and take actions on any unintended operations.
