It is certainly a smaller target there! Microsoft is one of the most attacked platforms on the planet, so how can they secure your data? They also have one of the biggest budgets for security on the planet. Modern malware is cheap to create and send so being a small target doesn’t protect you like it used to, but Microsoft’s army of security staff can.
Because data is valuable. All data. Because even if you don’t get directly targeted a supplier or customer, or someone else on the same server might be. The barrier to entry on creating and distributing malware has fallen so low that only going for the high end targets is no longer the best method for malicious actors. They spread the attack wide and collect as many credentials as possible.
There are measures you can take: MFA, secure passwords, geographic limiting, and secure data tagging. There are measures you should check your cloud service provider is using: behavioural modelling, heuristic modelling, anti-viruses and firewalls. All of this takes expertise to review and set up, expertise our Techs can provide.
The simplest and most effective way to protect your data! MFA means that even if someone manages to hack or steal a username and password, they still can’t get to the data behind it without the code on your phone.
