Beyond the inbox: The hidden tactics behind modern BEC attacks
This is the recording of our live webinar held on January 21st, 2026
On‑demand webinar: Beyond the inbox - The new reality of business email compromise (BEC)
Business Email Compromise (BEC) has transformed dramatically, shifting from simple phishing attempts to highly sophisticated, multi‑stage identity attacks capable of bypassing even strong security controls. Over the past year, Integrity360 investigations have shown that 63% of BEC cases involved session or token theft, allowing attackers to bypass MFA, impersonate legitimate users, and operate undetected within organisations for extended periods.
With Adversary‑in‑the‑Middle (AiTM) toolkits now easily accessible, attackers are hijacking logins in real time, establishing long‑term mailbox persistence, compromising suppliers, and quietly positioning themselves for financial fraud and lateral movement.
Now available on‑demand, this webinar brings front‑line insights directly from Integrity360’s MDR and CyberSOC experts. Richard Ford (CTO), Martin Potgieter (Regional CTO), Peter Priest (Senior MDR Engineer), and Fraser Grant (L3 CyberSOC Technical Lead) walk you step‑by‑step through how modern BEC attacks unfold inside real environments—and what security teams must modernise in 2026 to detect these threats earlier.
This session is designed to provide clear, practical, and actionable guidance for strengthening identity protection, enhancing email security, and improving BEC detection maturity across Microsoft 365 and hybrid enterprises.
In this on‑demand session, you will learn:
🔐 How Modern BEC Attacks Work
-
How attackers hijack live sessions and bypass MFA using Adversary‑in‑the‑Middle techniques.
-
Why token/session theft has become the primary driver of BEC investigations.
🕵️ Stealth, persistence & lateral movement
-
How mailbox rules, OAuth tokens, and hidden persistence mechanisms keep attackers invisible.
-
The role of access brokers, compromised suppliers, and dormant accounts in expanding attack paths.
🔎 Recognising the early warning signs
-
Behavioural patterns and investigation clues that indicate a BEC compromise long before money moves.
-
How attackers map internal relationships, exploit trust chains, and pivot inside your organisation.
🛡️ Defensive actions you can take now
-
Practical steps to harden authentication, enforce stronger Conditional Access and tighten identity protections.
-
Email security best practices for detecting social engineering without malicious links or attachments.
-
How to improve detection logic, SOC monitoring, and incident response workflows for identity-based attacks.
