\nWhile the seizure shows growing law enforcement focus, the group plans to rebuild, and organizations using centralized device management remain at risk without strong admin controls.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\nEnforce strict conditional access and privileged identity management (PIM) for domain and Intune admins, use privileged access management tools, and audit for unauthorized Global Admin accounts regularly.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n\n\n
