[OPLINTECH] Office365 Hacking Attempts

[Trist, Orion]

Hi All,

I'm wondering what other libraries have done about hacking attempts in Office 365?

We've started to get account lockouts or even hacked accounts from places like China and Russia. Not a tone, but enough to be annoying. From what I've gathered from Microsoft, they do have a way to blacklist countries from even attempting to connect to your tenant. But apparently, it's a feature that costs money, it supposedly requires Azure Premium at $6 per user per month. You can then setup a Conditional Access policy called Named Location to restrict access from whatever country you want. Or you can pay for E5 accounts, which are even more expensive.

I'd love to hear if anyone else has encountered this issue and if you've found a viable solution.

Thanks!
