Microsoft Security Fun Friday Week 5! This week's game- Spot the Phish!
Hey there Security Tech Community! We're back with Week 5 of our Security Fun Fridays. This week's game is Spot the Phish! Phishing is a very common cyberattack that typically targets emails and lures victims to click phony hyperlinks that share their personal information. Below I will post 3 screenshots of example Phishing Attacks and I want you to identify the most OBVIOUS ISSUE in each one. The first 2 people to respond in the comments with all 3 correct answers will earn our new "Microsoft Security Star" Badge to add to their profile. I will give everyone until Wednesday 3/19 to guess before I reveal the correct answers and award the badges (so even if 2 people answer before you, they may not be correct). Good luck! Note: This badge is only given out during Fun Friday games or by being an outstanding member of the community, so it is very exclusive!

Hello Community! Currently we are using Knowbe4 to simulate phishing campaigns. We are evaluating the Microsoft E5 Attack simulation. One problem that I cannot figure out with the MSFT version is as follows: I have the SOC mailbox setup to send phishing emails to a shared mailbox for triage (I have it setup to not forward to Microsoft) When I create an attack simulation, and folks report the phish, I still get a copy of it in the phishing mailbox (I send these out monthly to thousands of people so I would prefer not to have a copy) I have looked at the email headers, and there is nothing in them that I can create a custom rule for. Has anyone been able to filter out attack simulation emails, while still receiving normal user reported emails in the SOC mailbox? Any advice appreciated.

Hi folks! It appears the Azure Sentinel Training Lab solution is no longer on Azure Marketplace. Was this removed for SFI security reasons and if so what are alternative deployments for this? https://github.com/Azure/Azure-Sentinel/tree/master/Solutions/Training/Azure-Sentinel-Training-LabInfosecMar 16, 2025Microsoft220Views4likes1CommentBlock Anonymous Access to Teams without GSA
Documentation states that anonymous access to Teams and Sharepoint can be blocked on the data plane with TrV2 through GSA. Testing TrV2 with a browser extension (Modheader) to inject the TrV2 header I found that injecting this header also to "data plane", ie Teams.microsoft.com does block anonymous access to Teams. I am wondering if this method could be safely used to block anonymous access to specific M365 service until a potential move to GSAFranck HorowitzMar 15, 2025Copper Contributor50Views0likes1CommentDevice Stuck on Restart Screen After Update - Error Code: ATTEMPTED WRITE TO READONLY MEMORY
Hi everyone, I’m experiencing an issue with my Windows device that started after a recent update. For the past three days, my device has been stuck on a restart screen with the following error message: Your device ran into a problem and needs to restart. We'll restart for you. For more information about this issue and possible fixes, visit https://www.windows.com/stopcode If you call a support person, give them this info: Stop Code: ATTEMPTED WRITE TO READONLY MEMORY I’ve tried restarting the device multiple times, but it keeps returning to this screen. I’m unable to access my system or troubleshoot further. Has anyone else encountered this issue after an update? Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!CherryyMar 14, 2025Copper Contributor11Views0likes0CommentsSensitivity column in Windows Explorer populated
Hi Does anybody know when the sensitivity column in Windows explorer will be populated? Currently the only way I see which label is applied to a file is either through AIP unified labeling client, sharepoint document libraries or open a file. Thanks for a feedback. Best regards PhilippSolvedpheeelingMar 14, 2025Brass Contributor16KViews7likes29CommentsAll the locations where you can find Sensitivity labels
Update (14-Mar-25): Removed Windows Explorer Here are the locations where you can find the sensitivity label of a document (if there are any that I've missed, please feel free to add it here) Sensitivity Label Button in the Document: In Office applications such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, you can find the Sensitivity label button on the Home tab. This button allows users to apply or view sensitivity labels directly within the document interface. (Sensitivity label app on the upper right) Document Properties > Advanced Properties Sensitivity labels can also be found in the document properties. To access this, go to File > Info > Properties > Advanced Properties. Here, you can see detailed metadata, including any applied sensitivity labels. Sensitivity Label Column in SharePoint: In SharePoint, sensitivity labels are displayed in a dedicated column. This allows users to quickly see the sensitivity level of documents stored within SharePoint libraries (Removed) Windows File Explorer: - As it was rightly pointed in the comment section, this is a roadmap item that has yet to materialise. Mobile Applications: Office mobile apps for iOS and Android also support sensitivity labels, enabling users to apply and view labels on the go. Microsoft Purview Compliance Portal: Administrators can manage and view sensitivity labels applied across the organization through the Microsoft Purview Compliance Portal. This portal is only accessible to IT admins who has the right Purview role.vicwingsingMar 14, 2025Iron Contributor2.6KViews0likes10CommentsGlobal Administrator MFA recovery not possible
Since Microsoft automatically enforced MFA on administrator role in Azure you can end up in the situation where it is no longer possible to recover your tenant. If your only account on that tenant is with Global Administrator role and you accidentally loose your MFA, the only way is to call Microsoft support. Support on the phone is automated where any question regarding Azure is redirected to visit Azure portal. If your only user cannot login then Azure portal is not accessible.RobertasSimMar 13, 2025Copper Contributor103Views1like2CommentsBlocking Personal Outlook and Gmail Accounts on Corporate Device
Hello Community, In my organization, we use the Microsoft 365 environment. We have a hybrid infrastructure, but we aim to deploy as many policies as possible through Microsoft 365 (Intune, Purview, Defender, etc.). One of our goals is to limit the use of corporate devices for personal purposes. We use Outlook as our corporate email service, and we would like to block employees from signing into their personal email accounts (either via web or desktop application). Additionally, we would like to block access to other email services, such as Gmail, both via web and desktop apps. Could you provide guidance on how to achieve this? I would greatly appreciate any help or suggestions. Thank you very much!

When we try to delete a Purview Records Management > File Plan label (or Data Lifecycle Management > Retention label), we get the following error: "You can't delete this record label because it's currently applied to items in your organization. You can use content explorer to determine which items have this label applied." (see attached image). When we go to content explorer to find the label (in this example, Bank Reconciliations), it doesn't appear to exist (see attached image). We also reviewed our Label policies and Retention policies, and the given labels are not associated with any policy that we can see. So, in result, we cannot clean up File Plan labels since we can't find and remove the association between them and policies / items. Has anyone encountered this error when deleting file plan retention labels, but then unable to find anything the label is associated with?chagedorn49Mar 07, 2025Copper Contributor187Views1like5Comments
