Microsoft Defender XDR can misclassify IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses as RemoteIPType == FourToSixMapping, so Kusto queries filtering only for RemoteIPType == "Public" may miss Internet-bound C2 and other outbound telemetry; defenders should include FourToSixMapping and normalize ::ffff: mappings before applying IPv4 checks to avoid detection gaps.
