?? Business Email Compromise (BEC) is showing no signs of slowing down - specifically phishing attacks leveraging Axios and other tools to steal authentication from compromised accounts. ? Threat actors bypass MFA by stealing fully authenticated session tokens, allowing immediate access via VPNs, new devices, or cloud proxies. They establish persistence by adding MFA devices, setting malicious inbox rules, or launching internal phishing attacks. While MFA remains crucial, detecting suspicious login patterns is essential to counter evolving threats. ? Steps to mitigate include: ? Log users out of their session if they become inactive too long or force log outs after a specific period of time ? Properly audit logs for any anomalous events ? Consider forcing devices to be Azure-complaint ? Optionally implement FIDO2 if feasible ? Ensure you have a solid MDR provider that aggressively actions these all day The attached screenshots show a rise in account disables from Axios BECs and a threat actor who stole a session auth via Axios, logging in via VPN six minutes later—swiftly eradicated by Blackpoint SOC.
