The Midnight Blizzard attack against Microsoft continues to send shockwaves across the industry. In their latest update, 6 months after the initial disclosure, Microsoft warns that the attackers who compromised employee email accounts also gained access to select customer email accounts. We continue to see email breach scenarios go undetected and uncontained for long periods of time. Protecting email as a “way in” remains a top priority, but what happens “once in”? An attacker’s ability to live off the land via a compromised email account has dangerous and lasting consequences. This ongoing incident is another reminder to consider the email attack surface from all angles, and apply protections to accounts that have access to sensitive data, systems, and apps. https://lnkd.in/e3-S_QRR

Here’s a thought experiment – can we make email less susceptible to attacks in the first place? In this post, Ivan Dwyer makes a case for Email Security Posture Management (ESPM) to shrink the email attack surface. A well rounded email security solution means less issues coming into the SOC and more protections around accounts & data – Material customers realize these gains every day. Read the article below for a take – let us know if you agree! https://lnkd.in/ga7FWVDA

GovCon Wire interviews Abhishek about how Material protects both private and public sector assets. Highlights from the conversation: 🛑 Traditional tools like email gateways won’t help stop an attack if email isn’t the attack vector but is the target 🔑 Material’s API allows customers to defend your cloud office and get a handle on data stored at-rest 👥 It’s critical to return control of data to security teams to reduce the impact of a breach Read the full interview here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/ghArGHMg
