Using New Outlook on Windows for professional communication and productivity
I love how Microsoft is so obtuse on this issue, we NEED a hover over link option in new outlook, that or our org will have to find a new email client. There has been hours of security awareness training that will go to waste as users are trained to use this feature to thwart an incident. This is completely irresponsible for Microsoft to knowingly remove a key feature in defending against cyber threats
as a cyber security engineer you are deliberately creating a huge security risk by ignoring this issue. Stop it, stop playing games and enable this feature immediately. I use defender 365 for incidents, I can tell you the AI is great, however its not perfect, you need to allow users the ability to review a link and make the determination if its safe or not, its an extra layer of security...relying on AI to give you the thumbs up on an email and say its secure is not only irresponsible and arrogant but it puts microsoft at tremendious liability. lets say they let you know the link is safe, but ends up being an email sent by a bad actor, the user engages the link and lets say in this situation there is data exfiltration and ransomware. upon investigating its determined Microsoft gave it a safe link notice....you guys would be liable. just insane to me
