### Monitoring your malware scanning cap
112+

To ensure uninterrupted protection while effectively managing costs, there are two informational security alerts related to malware scanning cap usage. The first alert, `Malware Scanning will stop soon: 75% of monthly gigabytes scan cap reached (Preview)`, is triggered as your usage approaches 75% of the set monthly cap, offering a heads-up to adjust your cap if needed. The second alert, `Malware Scanning stopped: monthly gigabytes scan cap reached (Preview)`, notifies you when the cap has been reached and scanning is paused for the month, potentially leaving new uploads unscanned. Both alerts come with details on affected storage accounts to facilitate prompt and informed action, ensuring you can maintain your desired level of security without unexpected expenses.
