The uncomfortable truth: two-factor authentication is no longer enough on its own.
Criminals have industrialised the tools to defeat it.
The solution isn't to panic โ it's to upgrade. Passkeys and hardware keys are now accessible to everyone
How to protect yourself and your team:
*Switch to phishing-resistant MFA (hardware keys or passkeys โ not SMS codes)
*Train staff to verify login pages by checking the URL carefully
*Enable Microsoft's conditional access policies
*Report suspicious login attempts immediately to your IT team
How it works:
*Criminal buys the kit (it's sold as a service โ yes, really) *You receive a convincing fake Microsoft login page.
*You enter your credentials.
*Your session token is stolen in real time
*They're in your account โ MFA bypassed completely
This week: the FBI warned about "Kali365" โ a scam kit that lets criminals bypass Microsoft 365 two-factor authentication and hijack accounts without ever needing your password.
If your business runs on Microsoft 365, this affects you.
