changing needs,” said Daniel Hofmann, CEO of Hornetsecurity. “We have listened to our partners and developed a concrete solution to one of their biggest pain points: the onboarding, governance and compliance of their Microsoft 365 tenants. “Our new 365 Multi-Tenant Manager for MSPs will redefine M365 tenant management, enabling MSPs to streamline and centralise the management of multiple tenants from one central platform. This new product empowers MSPs to elevate their operational efficiency
and service quality to new heights, helping them with customer retention. “It will also speed up and standardise new tenant onboardings, freeing up MSPs time and resources for mission-critical tasks. Our calculations show the average MSP will save 80% of their time for management and onboarding of existing and new customers – the equivalent of an employee’s full- time workload over a year; and the more customers an MSP has, the higher this saving will be.”

New report reveals a rise in phishing attacks
Egress, a KnowBe4 company, has launched its latest Phishing Threat Trends Report , which examines the most recent phishing statistics and threat intelligence insights. It founds a 28% increase in phishing emails sent between April 1 – June 30 vs January 1 – March 31, 2024. In addition, 82% of phishing toolkits mentioned deepfakes and 74.8% referenced AI. The survey also revealed that 89% of phishing emails involve impersonation; Adobe was the most impersonated brand, followed by Microsoft. Also 14.9% of impersonation emails were classed as ‘payloadless’, relying solely on social engineering tactics.
Meanwhile, 44% of phishing emails were sent from compromised accounts, helping them bypass authentication protocols, with 8% originating from an account within an organisation's supply chain. The most prevalent payloads in these emails were hyperlinks, found in 45% of cases, followed by attachments, which appeared in 23% of the phishing emails. Commodity attacks – mass-produced, malicious campaigns that typically mimic spam by impersonating brands on a large scale – are rising in popularity, peaking at 13.6% of all phishing emails detected by Egress Defend in December 2023.
