The FBI has warned of the danger from a new wave of phishing attacks generated by a tool called Kali365.
It enables cyber criminals to obtain Microsoft 365 access tokens and bypass multi-factor authentication (MFA) protocols without intercepting the user’s credentials by capturing Oauth tokens linked to the victim’s Microsoft 365 account.
The scam works in a similar way to most phishing attacks. An attacker sends an email purporting to be from a trusted cloud document sharing service, including instructions to enter a particular code on a legitimate Microsoft site.
The code, however, authorizes the attacker’s device to access the victim’s Microsoft account.
The FBI has issued a set of instructions for IT security managers to help mitigate the Kali365 attack before it affects their users. These include creating a conditional access policy to block code flow for all users, with exceptions for the necessary business processes. Managers should also block authentication transfer policies, p

Many years ago, Microsoft created a handy hub for its Office suite: type office.com into your browser, and you’d see a web page where you could launch the various Office apps — Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and so on — or access recently used documents in those apps. This hub’s appearance changed a bit over time as the Office suite was rebranded as Office 365 and then Microsoft 365, but it still served as a launch pad for your M365 files and apps.
Now, however, Microsoft has deeply integrated its Copilot generative AI assistant throughout Microsoft 365, and the hub has been transformed. Currently called the M365 Copilot app, the page puts the Copilot Chat interface front and center. You can still get to your M365 files or apps by clicking Search or Apps in the sidebar on the left, but the main purpose of the hub these days is to let you chat with Copilot.
The old Microsoft Office hub has been taken over by Copilot Chat.

TLDR: Terrorism victims filed a Manhattan court motion targeting 344 million USDT frozen in IRGC-linked wallets. Plaintiffs cite past FBI seizure cases where Tether burned and reissued USDT to law enforcement wallets. Creditors seek to enforce $2.42 billion in compensatory and punitive terrorism judgments against Iran. Jurisdiction over Tether rests on its New York-based reserves managed through Cantor Fitzgerald. U.S. terrorism judgment creditors filed a motion in Manhattan federal court Thursday, seeking the turnover of over $344 million in USDT. The frozen funds are held in OFAC-blocked wallet addresses linked to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The plaintiffs want Tether to zero out those balances and reissue equivalent tokens to them. The case could set a notable precedent for crypto asset enforcement in terrorism-related judgments.
As AI continues to rapidly evolve, it is being used by cyber criminals to increase both the volume and efficiency of their attacks. At the same time, AI is giving defenders new tools.
