Multiple conditions along can be combined to create fine-grained and specific policies that partially enforce access controls to account resources that adversaries may attempt to abuse: conditional access to Cloud APIs, blocking legacy authentication, requiring multi-factor authentication for users, block access by location, block access to unsupported devices, failed login attempts, account lockout policies, etc.. These features may require Microsoft Entra ID P2.

EID-CA-E3 | Conditional Access | protect | minimal | T1074.001 | Local Data Staging |
Comments
Conditional Access (CA), when granting (risky) users access to Office applications like SharePoint and OneDrive, can restrict what they can do in these applications using its app-enforced restrictions. For example, it can enforce that users on unmanaged devices will have browser-only access to SharePoint/OneDrive with no ability to download, print, or sync files. This can impede an adversary's ability to collect and stage files. This offers minimal coverage as it requires the target application to support such a feature that can be triggered by this control and to date only a few (Office) applications support this.

Comments
This control can protect against the abuse of valid cloud accounts by requiring MFA or blocking access altogether based on signals such as the user's IP location information, device compliance state, risky sign-in/user state (through integration with Azure AD Identity Protection). Additionally, session controls that can limit what a valid user can do within an app can also be triggered based on the aforementioned triggers.

For example, it can enforce that users on unmanaged devices will have browser-only access to SharePoint with no ability to download, print, or sync files. Furthermore, with its integration with Microsoft Cloud App Security, it can even restrict cut, copy and paste operations. This can impede an adversary's ability to collect valuable information and/or files from the application. This protection is partial as it doesn't prohibit an adversary from potentially viewing sensitive information and manually collecting it, for example simply writing down information by hand.

Conditional Access, when granting (risky) users access to cloud storage, specifically OneDrive, can restrict what they can do in these applications using its app-enforced restrictions. For example, it can enforce that users on unmanaged devices will have browser-only access to OneDrive with no ability to download, print, or sync files. This can impede an adversary's ability to exfiltrate data from OneDrive. The protection coverage provided by this control is Minimal as it doesn't provide protection for other storage services available on Azure such as the Azure Storage service.

Security controls like Azure AD Identity Protection can raise a user's risk level asynchronously after they have used a valid account to access organizational data. This CAE control can respond to this change in the users risky state to terminate the user's access within minutes or enforce an additional authentication method such as MFA. This mitigates the impact of an adversary using a valid account. This is control only forces the user to re-authenticate and doesn't resolve the usage of a valid account (i.e. password change) and is therefore a containment type of response.

The following events are currently evaluated:
User Account is deleted or disabled
Password for a user is changed or reset
Multifactor authentication is enabled for the user
Administrator explicitly revokes all refresh tokens for a user

Microsoft recommended the use of Passwordless authentication. This method provides the most secure MFA sign-in process by replacing the password with something you have, plus something you are or something you know.(e.g., Biometric, FIDO2 security keys, Microsoft’s Authenticator app).
When combined with Conditional Access policies, use of strong two-factor for remote service accounts will mitigate an adversary's ability to leverage stolen credentials.

EID-PWLA-E3 | Passwordless Authentication | protect | significant | T1110.002 | Password Cracking |
Comments
Microsoft recommended the use of Passwordless authentication. This method provides the most secure MFA sign-in process by replacing the password with something you have, plus something you are or something you know.(e.g., Biometric, FIDO2 security keys, Microsoft’s Authenticator app).
When combined with Conditional Access policies, Passwordless Authentication can significantly protect against the likelihood of adversary activity from credential attacks (e.g., brute force, token theft, etc.).

EID-IDPR-E5 | ID Protection | detect | partial | T1078.002 | Domain Accounts |
Comments
When Azure Active Directory (AAD) Federation is configured for a tenant, an adversary that compromises a domain credential can use it to access (Azure) cloud resources. Identity Protection supports applying its risk detections (e.g.: Anonymous IP address, Atypical travel, Malware linked IP address, Unfamiliar sign-in properties, etc.) to federated identities thereby providing detection mitigation for this risk. Because this detection is specific to an adversary utilizing valid domain credentials to access cloud resources and does not mitigate the usage of valid domain credentials to access on-premise resources, this detection has been scored as Partial.
The temporal factor of this control's detection is low because although there are some real-time detections most are offline detections (multi-day).

In Microsoft 365 organizations with mailboxes in Exchange Online or standalone Exchange Online Protection (EOP) organizations without Exchange Online mailboxes, email messages are automatically protected against malware by EOP. Some of the major categories of malware are:
Viruses that infect other programs and data, and spread through your computer or network looking for programs to infect.
Spyware that gathers your personal information, such as sign-in information and personal data, and sends it back to its author.
Ransomware that encrypts your data and demands payment to decrypt it. Anti-malware software doesn't help you decrypt encrypted files, but it can detect the malware payload that's associated with the ransomware.
EOP offers multi-layered malware protection that's designed to catch all known malware in Windows, Linux, and Mac that travels into or out of your organization. The following options help provide anti-malware protection:
Layered defenses against malware: Multiple anti-malware scan engines help protect against both known and unknown threats. These engines include powerful heuristic detection to provide protection even during the early stages of a malware outbreak. This multi-engine approach has been shown to provide significantly more protection than using just one anti-malware engine.
Real-time threat response: During some outbreaks, the anti-malware team might have enough information about a virus or other form of malware to write sophisticated policy rules that detect the threat, even before a definition is available from any of the scan engines used by the service. These rules are published to the global network every 2 hours to provide your organization with an extra layer of protection against attacks.
Fast anti-malware definition deployment: The anti-malware team maintains close relationships with partners who develop anti-malware engines. As a result, the service can receive and integrate malware definitions and patches before they're publicly released. Our connection with these partners often allows us to develop our own remedies as well. The service checks for updated definitions for all anti-malware engines every hour.

These engines include powerful heuristic detection to provide protection even during the early stages of a malware outbreak. This multi-engine approach has been shown to provide significantly more protection than using just one anti-malware engine.
Real-time threat response: During some outbreaks, the anti-malware team might have enough information about a virus or other form of malware to write sophisticated policy rules that detect the threat, even before a definition is available from any of the scan engines used by the service. These rules are published to the global network every 2 hours to provide your organization with an extra layer of protection against attacks.
Fast anti-malware definition deployment: The anti-malware team maintains close relationships with partners who develop anti-malware engines. As a result, the service can receive and integrate malware definitions and patches before they're publicly released. Our connection with these partners often allows us to develop our own remedies as well. The service checks for updated definitions for all anti-malware engines every hour.
License Requirements: M365 E3 or Microsoft Defender for Office plan 1.

In Microsoft 365 organizations with mailboxes in Exchange Online or standalone Exchange Online Protection (EOP) organizations without Exchange Online mailboxes, email messages are automatically protected against malware by EOP. Some of the major categories of malware are:
Viruses that infect other programs and data, and spread through your computer or network looking for programs to infect.
Spyware that gathers your personal information, such as sign-in information and personal data, and sends it back to its author.
Ransomware that encrypts your data and demands payment to decrypt it. Anti-malware software doesn't help you decrypt encrypted files, but it can detect the malware payload that's associated with the ransomware.

In Exchange Online Protection (EOP) and Microsoft Defender for Office 365, quarantine policies allow admins to define the user experience for quarantined messages.
Traditionally, users have been allowed or denied levels of interactivity with quarantine messages based on why the message was quarantined. For example, users can view and release messages that were quarantined as spam or bulk, but they can't view or release messages that were quarantined as high confidence phishing or malware.
The following M365 features are supported by quarantine policies, “Response” to Anti-malware and Anti-Phishing tagged items. Files that are quarantined as malware by Safe Attachments for SharePoint, OneDrive, and Microsoft Teams.

With the E5 licensing or Office Plan 2, ZAP is also able to retroactively detect existing malicious chat messages in Microsoft Teams that are identified as malware or high confidence phishing.
License Requirements: ZAP for Defender O365 is included with M365's E3 and requires E5 when leveraging ZAP for Teams security.

Comments
This control's "Reduce lateral movement path risk to sensitive entities" recommendation can lead to protecting sensitive accounts against Pass-the-Hash and Pass-the-Ticket attacks that may result in an adversary acquiring a golden ticket. It recommends running the Lateral-Movement-Paths report to understand and identify exactly how attackers can move laterally through the monitored network to gain access to privileged identities such as the KRBTGT on the domain controller. Because this is a recommendation, its score has been capped as Partial.

Comments
This control's "Modify unsecure Kerberos delegations to prevent impersonation" recommendation promotes running the "Unsecure Kerberos delegation" report that can identify accounts that have unsecure Kerberos delegation configured. Unsecured Kerberos delegation can lead to exposing account TGTs to more hosts resulting in an increased attack surface for Kerberoasting. Due to this control providing a recommendation its score is capped at Partial.

An incident in Microsoft Defender XDR is a collection of correlated alerts and associated data that make up the story of an attack. Microsoft 365 services and apps create alerts when they detect a suspicious or malicious event or activity. Individual alerts provide valuable clues about a completed or ongoing attack. Attacks typically employ various techniques against different types of entities, such as devices, users, and mailboxes. The result of this is multiple alerts for multiple entities in your tenant. Piecing the individual alerts together to gain insight into an attack can be challenging and time-consuming, Microsoft Defender XDR automatically aggregates the alerts and their associated information into an incident. A typical Incident Response workflow in Microsoft Defender XDR begins with a triage action, next is the investigate action, and finally is the response action.
