Pinion Mailbomb

4+ users were impacted with a mailbombing campaign. Within 30 minutes, I had created new policies within Mimecast to mitigate these tactics which reduced the numbers of emails coming into these users' mailboxes by over 80%, with the subsequent 20% reduced over the following 72 hours. All emails and email addresses sending these spam registrations and "account recoveries" were removed from the users' mailboxes and blocked for the firm.

Traveling Users Conditional Access Policy Created a conditional access policy, setup groups, and created an "Access Package" within Azure where users can "request" access to their firm technology when traveling away from their home office. This reduces the need to manually do this when a user travels and cuts down mistakes and security holes when originally applied to the whole firm. 09-09-2024 Pinion
