CISA Alert: Large-Scale Spear-Phishing Campaign A foreign threat actor is running a significant spear-phishing campaign that targets various sectors, including government and IT. The campaign involves sending emails with malicious remote desktop protocol (RDP) files to gain unauthorized access to networks and potentially deploy harmful code. CISA advises restricting outbound RDP connections, blocking the execution of RDP files, enabling multi-factor authentication, and using phishing-resistant methods like FIDO tokens. Organizations are also encouraged to deploy endpoint detection systems, conduct user training, and monitor for suspicious activities. Below is an article that outlines the issue and recommendations made by CISA. M3Power offers email security and a suite of security services designed to help protect against sophisticated phishing attacks like the one outlined by CISA. If you're concerned about the impact of such threats on your organization or need assistance implementing CISA's recommended protective measures, please contact our team for expert guidance and support.

?? Mandatory Azure MFA ?? On August 15th, a 60-day advance notice was issued to inform Entra global admins the start date of Azure MFA enforcement and the actions required to do so. Required MFA for all Azure users will be rolled out in phases, with Phase 1 starting this month. With the mandatory Phase 1 enforcement date approaching, MFA will be required to sign-in to?the Azure portal,?Microsoft Entra admin center,?and?Intune admin center. As cyber threats continue to evolve, MFA is a crucial tool in safeguarding sensitive data and ensuring that only authorized users can access resources. There are several ways to enable MFA, but we understand that complex environments or technical barriers may make this process a little more difficult. If you have any questions about your environment, what this process looks like, or how to stay complaint, please don't hesitate to reach out.
