This advisory explains that while MFA reduces straightforward password theft, attackers increasingly bypass authentication via MFA relays, push‑fatigue prompts, help‑desk social engineering, stolen sessions and infostealer malware; it recommends moving high‑risk accounts to phishing‑resistant auth (FIDO2/passkeys), hardening recovery and help‑desk workflows, removing legacy exceptions, applying conditional access, and actively monitoring post‑login activity.
