Comments
This control triggers an alert when there is a change in the access pattern to an Azure Cosmos account based on access from an unusual geographical location. False positives are fairly likely and misuse from a typical location is not covered, so score is Minimal. Relevant alert is "Access from an unusual location to a Cosmos DB account"

    Comments
    This control triggers an alert when an unusually large amount of data is extracted from/by an account compared to recent activity. False positives are fairly likely and extraction in quantities below the control's threshold is not detected, so score is Minimal. Neither of the sub-techniques are relevant in this context, since they are repository-specific. Relevant alert is "Unusual amount of data extracted from a Cosmos DB account"
