Security News > 2023 > August > EvilProxy phishing campaign targets 120,000 Microsoft 365 users

EvilProxy is becoming one of the more popular phishing platforms to target MFA-protected accounts, with researchers seeing 120,000 phishing emails sent to over a hundred organizations to steal Microsoft 365 accounts.
A new phishing campaign observed by Proofpoint since March 2023 is using the EvilProxy service to send emails that impersonate popular brands like Adobe, DocuSign, and Concur.
Eventually, the victim lands on an EvilProxy phishing page that reverse proxies the Microsoft 365 login page, which also features the victim's organization theme to appear authentic.
Once a Microsoft 365 account is compromised, the threat actors add their own multi-factor authentication method to establish persistence.
Reverse proxy phishing kits, and EvilProxy in particular, are a growing threat capable of delivering high-quality phishing at dangerous scales while bypassing security measures and account protections.
