CISA recently announced critical guidance on threats against organizations using certain forms of multi-factor authentication. The agency urged all organizations to implement phishing-resistant MFA controls in order to prevent phishing and increasingly automated and sophisticated attacks on authentication processes.
With so many phishing attacks targeting credentials to be used in a later campaign, more organizations are getting the hint that they need to have MFA in place for at least those users with access to critical resources and/or valuable data, if not everyone. However, what happens when the threat actor has the credentials but doesn't have the additional forms of authentication?
I invited Sally Vincent, Threat Research Senior Engineer at LogRhythm to join me on Tech Talks Daily. Listen in as we discuss how organizations can identify unusual authentication activity and explore mitigation strategies to stay ahead of phishing attacks.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
