**Module documentation**

Plugin that parses artifacts created by Microsoft Defender.

This includes the EVTX logs, as well as recovery of artefacts from the quarantine folder.

**Function documentation**

Recover files that have been placed into quarantine by Microsoft Defender.

Microsoft Defender RC4 encrypts the output of the 'BackupRead' function when it places a file into quarantine.
This means multiple data streams can be contained in a single quarantined file, including zone identifier
information.
