![]() When a user clicks on one of the malicious URLs, Microsoft Defender for Office 365 runs a scan on that URL to identify if there are any threats associated with it in the past to build a “Good” or “Bad” reputation on that URL. clean at the time of delivery, but weaponized later). Imagine a case where users in an organization have received an email with multiple URLs in it, some of them clean, but some of them could be malicious (i.e. There are two URL click alerts policies offered by Microsoft Defender for Office 365:ġ) A potentially malicious URL click was detected: With these enhancements, alerts are now capable of detecting threats at time of click and potential threats in the last 48 hours from the time of first click. To better protect against these types of threats, Microsoft Defender for Office 365 now features alerting policy enhancements to support the detection, investigation, and remediation of threats via URLs sent over email. delayed by time or selectively by the geo or time zone) after it is delivered to user’s inbox. Recently, cybersecurity researchers/hunters have identified new trends in how URLs can be used to attack an organization, including but not limited to: in phishing attacks, URLs that download malicious attachment once user clicks on them, URLs with multiple redirections to bypass the security filters, or even URLs that are clean at the time of delivery, but are weaponized (e.g. Email remains the most common way attackers send messages to unsuspecting employees. Set objTextStream = objFileSystem.One of the most frequent ways attackers target employees to compromise an organization is by sending them internet web links (aka URLs) embedded with malicious content or malware. Set objFileSystem = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Line Input #intOutFileNum, strDataLine ' read in first lineĬonst ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2, ForAppending = 8Ĭonst TristateUseDefault = -2, TristateTrue = -1, TristateFalse = 0 Set objFileSystem = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Open strLookup For Input As #intOutFileNum ' Const strLookup As String = "C:\Temp\My Text File.txt " ![]() ' Const strLookup As String = "\\/sites\xxxx\Shared Documents\xxxx\xxxx\My Text File.txt" 'Const strLookup As String = "xxxxs:///sites/xxxx/Shared Documents/xxxxx/xxxxx/My Text File.txt" Plus, I need an option that will work regardless of a OneDrive connection being set up or not. I did consider OneDrive but the location of the file differs depending on whether the user has set up OneDrive sync or OneDrive shortcut from SharePoint. I have also found this - (v=offi. that originally gave me some hope, but that is for VB and not VBA. But mapping drives or using UNC are not possible with the SharePoint we use (I have tried). In my searches I have found multiple old references (10 years plus) about mapping drives or using UNC names. I have tried names using instead of spaces and just using spaces with the same result. The SharePoint I'm using is not an in-house system but is using Microsoft's SharePoint service offering. I have tried two different methods of opening the file (code below ), both of which work fine on a local copy but fail when using SharePoint. The specific app shouldn't matter but if you are interested it is MS Project. I have an MS Office app that needs to read a text file located on SharePoint via a VBA macro.
