I am an independent developer, and I've been unable to publish my app on the Microsoft Store for about three months — it keeps getting rejected due to "10.2.10 Security": I realize this is because I'm not well-known, but how can I build a reputation when it’s impossible? Microsoft blocks the download: Microsoft even prevents it from being opened: Sure, I could provide a step-by-step guide on how to unblock my app, but, as experience has shown, users don’t trust unfamiliar apps (and rightly so!), because Microsoft has conditioned them for years to avoid running unknown software: "Make sure you trust before you open it" and "Running this app might put your PC at risk". Don't get me wrong: as a regular user, I fully support these security measures because they truly work and help. But as an independent developer, I don’t know what to do :( My app doesn't engage in cryptojacking, doesn't initiate unauthorized network activity, and doesn't pose any threat to users — it doesn't transmit any data to me and/or third parties, doesn't use telemetry and/or monitoring tools, doesn't track actions and/or location, doesn't have built-in diagnostics and/or analytics, doesn't request privilege escalation, doesn't collect statistics and doesn't learn from personal data. My app passes all the necessary Microsoft checks: And I can’t afford an EV certificate since I’m an individual, not an organization: But my app gets blocked anyway. So... does anyone have any ideas on what I can do in my situation?Azure Sentinel Training Lab solution is no longer on Azure Marketplace
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-LabNew Place to Chat with the Microsoft Information Protection Team

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! SPOT THE PHISH!
Attack Simulation - Copy to SOC Mailbox
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. Em
Block 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 GSA
