Microsoft Teams: Invite attendees to register
🚨 The Signal: Teams event organizers can now invite specific users or groups to register for an event. This improves event management but introduces a new vector for targeted social engineering if not managed carefully.
The Impact
Event organizers and attendees are affected, with a low risk of targeted phishing if event creation is not properly governed.
- Event Organizers: New feature to manage invitations, requires awareness of potential misuse.
- Attendees: May receive targeted registration invites, increasing susceptibility to phishing if source is spoofed.
The Action
- Review and update internal policies for creating and managing Microsoft Teams events.
- Educate event organizers on verifying legitimate event registration requests.
- Educate end-users on identifying suspicious event invitations and reporting them.
