CISA and Microsoft warn organizations to harden Intune and identity controls with least privilege, role-based access, MFA, conditional access, and requiring multi-admin approval for sensitive actions like device wipes. Apple urges iPhone users to update after fixing actively exploited flaws used in targeted, sophisticated campaigns, noting risks even for those who think Apple devices aren't targeted. The show also highlights new FLAIR research showing North Korean operatives continue infiltrating Western firms as remote IT workers using stolen or fabricated identities, exploiting weak hiring verification and broad access.
