Protecting Yourself Against Hackers with Two Factor Authentication
The spate of hacking attempts shows no abatement and 2019 has revealed a startling increase in attacks on online identities, particularly aimed at Office 365 users. Some of the phishing attacks, where the hacker tries to trick you into divulging your password and other sensitive data, are crude and easily identifiable. However, recent Office 365 scams, with emails purporting to come from Microsoft requiring you to sign in to your Office 365 account, look legitimate, with the language, style and logos you would expect to find on an official Microsoft email. Suffice it to say, the most complex password in the world won’t protect you when you have essentially handed it over in one of these attacks.
