A new wave of phishing scams is targeting businesses, and it’s more cunning than ever. Microsoft has uncovered a scheme where cybercriminals use trusted cloud platforms like SharePoint and OneDrive to infiltrate your business. But you’re not powerless—you have the tools to defend against this threat.
These scammers exploit privacy settings to bypass security, sneaking into your cloud storage using stolen or black-market login credentials. Once inside, they upload deceptive files—like a fake Microsoft 365 login page—and restrict access to make it look authentic. Opening these files or clicking their links could give them full access to your systems, allowing them to steal information, install malware, or wreak havoc on your business.
The impact can be devastating: downtime, financial losses, and a damaged reputation. But as the hero of your business, you have the power to prevent this.
- Educate Your Team: Ensure everyone is vigilant about suspicious emails, even if they appear to come from trusted sources. Verify the sender directly before opening shared files.
- Activate Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Adding an extra layer of security makes it much harder for criminals to breach your systems.
- Stay Up-to-Date: Keep your security software current to protect against the latest threats.
