Disable users ability to create rules...
For security reasons we need to disable users abilities to create rules in the Outlook application. I have searched high and low and cannot find where or how this can be done... Any help would be...
Does anyone know how to prevent the creation of rules?
I introduced MFA but my account was broken into again and this time horrible Jimmy (lets call him) created a rule to hide emails as well as changing the fone number of my MFA to his fone.
RESULT: emails hacked and money fraudulently transferred out of accounts.
some one please help. How do you prevent rules altogether?
My 2 pennies: Cart before the horse? Rules are good, hackers are bad, First stop hackers (MFA, block basic auth, P1 conditional access etc, whatever works for your situation). Run daily reports on successful Logins (are they coming from your offices or from Nigeria), run reports on Failed Logins (has the Hacker community found another way trying to bypass MFA?), train users on phishing techniques. All this can be automated for pennies, and will stop any successful hacks (if they are good enough) within hours or less. Still too long but you can't always win them all.
Blocking rules does nothing to help you imho, modern hackers don't even create rules anymore, too obvious. But again, just my opinion. Next month it might all change again, that's the fun of it....
