Security on Heilt ærleg

Did you know you can define security based on risk?

Imagine that someone gains access to the email account of the person responsible for finance in your organization. They can read conversations with suppliers, see which invoices are expected, and send messages from an address colleagues trust. For a small business, the consequences can be serious, even with only a handful of employees.

When you ask how you are protected against this, the answer might be: “Everyone has registered MFA.” That is a good starting point. But it only tells you that employees have set up a way to verify their identity. It does not tell you which requirements actually apply when someone tries to access their email.

You revoked the session. But did you check if the attacker registered their own device?

One of the things I brought home from Workplace Ninja Summit in Baden was how much the device actually matters to the identity.

We talk a lot about MFA, passkeys, Conditional Access, and tokens. But the device isn’t just something the user sits in front of when they sign in.

The device can itself become part of the trust chain.

That point was clear across sessions on modern identity attacks, device trust, passkeys, and privileged workstations. Shortly after the conference, concrete attacks made the issue far less theoretical.

Business Premium doesn’t make you secure until you actually put it to use

Microsoft 365 Business Premium is the flagship in the business segment for organizations with up to 300 users, and the license includes much of what a Norwegian mid-sized organization actually needs in 2026: identity, device management, email protection, and endpoint protection. But that does not mean the organization is secure when the license is purchased. It only means the organization can set up much better protection than before.

Insider Risk Management in 2026: when the threat logs in

Thu, 20 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The big shift in 2026 isn’t just who tries to break in. It’s how often they simply log in.

For Norwegian organizations, including small ones, this means the line between “external attacker” and “insider risk” has become much less useful in practice. If an employee is phished, or an account is compromised another way, activity quickly looks like legitimate use. Then the question isn’t just whether you stop the break-in. You also have to detect that an apparently normal user suddenly behaves like a risk.
