How does a legacy test account grant access to read every Office 365 account? In Thursday’s post updating customers on findings from its ongoing investigation, Microsoft provided more details on how the hackers achieved this monumental escalation of access. The hackers, part of a group Microsoft tracks as Midnight Blizzard, gained persistent access to the privileged email accounts by abusing the OAuth authorization protcol, which is used industry-wide to allow an array of apps to access resources on a network. After compromising the test tenant, Midnight Blizzard used it to create a malicious app and assign it rights to access every email address on Microsoft’s Office 365 email service.

The reason many of the solutions fail is because they falsely believe burnout is an individual problem, rather than a collective problem. The source of burnout was captured rather elegantly in a survey of 7,500 full-time employees by Gallup, which found the top five reasons for burnout are (1) Unfair treatment at work, (2) Unmanageable workload, (3) Lack of role clarity, (4) Lack of communication and support from their manager, and (5) Unreasonable time pressure. Notice how none of these problems are remotely addressed by mediation apps or Yoga? Companies are completely missing the mark when it comes to addressing burnout.
