Microsoft Defender for Office 365: Hourly option for notifications

We are adding a new hourly option to end user quarantine notifications, which will allow users to rely on receiving prompt notifications about quarantined items when appropriate. With this feature, users will be updated frequently once new items land in their quarantine folder.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 93304.

When this will happen:

Standard: will begin rolling out in late July and be completed by mid-August.

Government: will begin rolling out in late August and be completed by mid-September.

How this will affect your organization:

Using the quarantine policy, Admins will be able to configure an hourly notification frequency for users in their organization.
