Pretty sure that was in the bible.

Proverbs 25:16 - If you find honey, eat just enough - too much of it, and you will vomit.

Could update that to be: If you find updates, apply them - too soon though, and you will vomit your credentials.

It is more important than ever to introduce geo-ip conditional access on your network(s). That way you limit your attack surface by a significant margin.

My personal stuff 100%

For work? No such choice (apart from the obvious ones)

Your work most likely already has conditional access through MS Entra

Not a Microsoft shop, but yes they have a pretty extensive IDS for anything public facing, another company to handle internal Auth
