Microsoft Deploys new weapon to fight hackers ( Fake honeypots)

Microsoft is using a deceptive tactic to combat phishing attacks by creating fake Azure accounts that appear legitimate to lure in attackers. Once attackers log into these fake accounts, Microsoft tracks their actions, collects data about their techniques, and slows down their activity, effectively disrupting their operations. This method allows Microsoft to gain valuable intelligence about phishing campaigns, identify attackers, and ultimately protect their users.
