Log alerts are scoped at the subscription level. For the policies to remediate and deploy, the data which the alert queries for needs to exist in the Log Analytics table. For the virtual machine log alerts the VM insights solution needs to be enabled on the VMs that are targeted. Only the performance collection of the VM insights solution is required for the current alerts to deploy. To enable VM Insights, you need to install the Azure Monitor Agent and optionally the Dependency agent on your supported machines. You can use different methods to install the agents, such as the Azure portal, Azure Policy, Azure Resource Manager templates, PowerShell, or manual install.

While alerts are generated by default and can't be turned off for destructive operations, the notifications are in the control of the user, allowing you to clearly specify which set of email address (or other notification endpoints) you wish to route alerts to. Notifications are configured by an alert processing rule, which will be created by default when deploying AMBA.
