Service desks have become a favored target for attackers seeking password resets, MFA changes, and access to corporate accounts. Specops Software breaks down how service desk social engineering attacks work and how organizations can defend against them. [...]

Account takeovers are rising as attackers bypass traditional defenses through phishing, session hijacking, and MFA fatigue. Specops Software explores how device trust and continuous verification help reduce account takeover risk. [...]

Attackers are increasingly bypassing weak authentication through phishing, MFA fatigue, and service desk social engineering. Specops Software breaks down five best practices for stronger identity verification and access security. [...]

Strong Active Directory passwords don't have to come at the expense of usability. Specops Software explains how passphrases, breached password protection, and self-service resets can improve security without frustrating users. [...]

Identity checks alone can't stop attackers using stolen session tokens and compromised devices. Specops Software outlines why Zero Trust strategies increasingly depend on continuous device verification. [...]

Resetting a password doesn't always remove attackers from Active Directory. Specops Software explains how cached credentials and Kerberos tickets can keep attackers authenticated after a reset. [...]

Password resets are one of the easiest ways for attackers to bypass security controls. Specops Software shows how helpdesk social engineering turns a seemingly legitimate reset request into full account compromise. [...]

Stolen credentials remain a top breach vector, often leading to unchecked privilege escalation. Specops explains how identity-first Zero Trust limits access, enforces device trust, and blocks lateral movement. [...]

A $30,000 AI GPU doesn't outperform consumer GPUs at password cracking. Specops explains why attackers don't need exotic hardware to break weak passwords. [...]

Passing MFA doesn't mean a session is safe, attackers can hijack tokens and bypass identity checks. Specops Software explains why Zero Trust must verify both user identity and device health. [...]
