# Phishing for dummies: Forg365 lowers barrier to M365 account takeovers

**[CSO Online](https://daily.dev/sources/csoonline)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Forg365 is a phishing-as-a-service platform distributed via Telegram that lowers the barrier for Microsoft 365 account takeovers. It combines AI-assisted lure creation, device-code phishing, and adversary-in-the-middle techniques to bypass MFA. A browser extension called ForgCookie lets attackers refresh M365 SSO cookies from their own browsers, meaning a password reset alone may not remove attacker access. Security researchers recommend blocking device-code authentication in Microsoft Entra ID where not needed, deploying phishing-resistant MFA (FIDO2/WebAuthn), revoking refresh tokens and OAuth permissions post-compromise, and auditing newly registered devices for indicators like names starting with 'Forg365'.
