Hackers Abuse Microsoft 365’s Direct Send Feature to Deliver Internal Phishing Attacks

Cyber Security News

Cybercriminals have discovered a sophisticated new attack vector by exploiting Microsoft 365’s Direct Send feature to deliver phishing campaigns that masquerade as legitimate internal communications.
