Microsoft Teams Phishing Attack Alerts Coming to Everyone Next Month

Microsoft Teams phishing alerts will be available for all Microsoft 365 customers by mid-February 2025. This feature, designed to protect against brand impersonation attacks from external senders, will automatically detect phishing attempts and prompt users with warnings. Admins do not need to configure this, and they can also monitor detected attacks via audit logs. Until then, users are advised to disable external access if unnecessary, or allow specific domains to reduce risk.
