The MFA Gaps Attackers are Still Exploiting
Persistent MFA blind spots on VPN, RDP, and Windows logins continue to hand attackers easy wins—cloud-only MFA rollouts leave the perimeter dangerously exposed.
Summary written by editorial AI · Source link below
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. [...]
Editorial Analysis
Partial MFA deployment creates a false sense of security; attackers consistently target the unprotected legacy entry points enterprises overlook.
Extend MFA enforcement to all remote-access and privileged-authentication pathways, including VPN, RDP, and local Windows logons.
MFA gaps on VPN and remote desktop remain one of the easiest paths into enterprise networks.
