I don't mean to alarm anyone, but there is now a social media site for bots. They are already talking and posting. Humans welcome.

Anyone else seeing the macOS office auto update helper call /bin/test against office patch files hundreds of thousands of times related to 16.105.1 installing???

@MSFT365Status our mac fleet is only 1/12th of our environment but in the last 24 hours has produced more process create events than our entire windows estate has in the same time period. For the love of God please terminate office patching for macOS from yesterday’s release.

learn.microsoft.com/en-us/en… Requiring new sessions for Medium Risk Sign-ins does nothing to stop Session Token Replay attacks in practice according to live tests. What is the deal? How does this protect anything if Anomalous Token EIDIP alerts only flag the sign-in risk as Medium?

Yeah so turns out this is working as intended. Sessions need to be revoked for re-prompt. Guess what isn’t available as an automatic response/control feature for sign-in risk? Revocation. Even if you’re leveraging a SIEM/SOAR action to revoke via API, it’s coming 15 min delayed.

Really would be swell to have a Token Revocation action on Conditional Access policies for risk mitigation. Built-in policy/manual sign-in risk policies don’t work to re-auth risky sign-ins at any level. Sign-in frequency and persistent browser session controls just don’t work…

I mean heck - even changing a password doesn’t revoke tokens on its own. What’s the point without automatic revocation? Sure, CAE-aware apps can supposedly kill sessions but what does that matter when nothing stops the attacker at the door? Or at least makes them re-auth?

*Disgruntled Notes from the Field. Bah.* Inb4 device compliance and passwordless purists enter the chat. Defense in Depth is *Key* but not when you have to play politics despite demonstrating the facts.

Authentication strength is great but the problem is a new session is never interactively prompted and sign-in logs indicate it's stil being satisfied by the replayed token.

Are there any security vendors out there that provide macOS installers that aren't completely convoluted/impossible to get working at Enterpise scale? How hard is it to provide a single .pkg with settings defined by config profiles??

Are you ready? In just a few weeks, #Microsoft will turn on full enforcement of strong certificate mapping on domain controllers. For those unprepared, there will be outages! Wi-Fi and #VPN, most likely. #mobility #security #PKI #aovpn rmhci.co/42tr9lO

Fun Fact!!! Going "Passwordless" doesn't protect against this Phishing attack exploiting Device Code Authorization Token theft :) aadinternals.com/post/phishi… Implement CA policies to block Device Auth Flows ASAP. Only make exceptions when required. learn.microsoft.com/en-us/en…
