What happened
Attackers continue exploiting gaps in MFA coverage, using stolen credentials to access VPNs, RDP, and Windows systems that still rely on passwords alone. Specops explains why protecting cloud applications isn't enough and how organizations can close these authentication gaps. [...]
Why it matters
Incomplete MFA implementation leaves critical systems vulnerable to credential-based attacks, increasing the risk of unauthorized access. Organizations need to extend MFA protection beyond cloud apps to secure all access points effectively.
