Maximizing Microsoft Defender for Office

The Managed Phishing for Microsoft service is designed to complement Microsoft Defender for Office’s existing capabilities, which include phishing simulations and protective policies. However, the increasing sophistication of phishing attacks, often employing generative AI, necessitates enhanced protections. The FBI reported that phishing was the most reported cybercrime in recent statistics, underscoring the critical need for a layered email security strategy.
