4Sight’s Chief Digital Officer and Modern Workplace Lead unpacked what is happening, what it means for organisations using Microsoft 365, and the practical steps that can strengthen identity protection.
How attackers can abuse self-service password reset and human trust to gain access without relying on traditional password cracking.

A structured approach to assessment, hardening, Conditional Access, MFA strategy, external access and ongoing security monitoring.

Modern attacks increasingly target what happens around and after authentication. The practical response is not to replace Microsoft 365, but to deliberately review identity posture, remove unnecessary privilege, harden authentication flows and govern external access.
