Last week, I had the opportunity to participate in a live session in French as official Speaker Varonis about Security, Data Protection & Governance as Varonis Elite member at SECURE IT DAY 2020 with Pierre-Antoine FAILLY (Security Architect – Varonis). We are seeing an uptick in adversaries using a very tricky Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attack to bypass MFA and breach Office 365 tenants. So, during the session, we have shown how an attacker obtains access to SharePoint Online using a phishing attack.

Hi! Basically, default settings of Domain Controllers are not hardened. Every DC has by default the “Default Domain Controllers Policy” in place, but this GPO creates different escalation paths to Domain Admin if you have any members in Backup Operators or Server Operators for example. They can become Domain Admin. Start with replacing the “Default Domain Controllers Policy” and replace it with a new GPO that is more security-focused.
