Breach at the Beach: Play the Ultimate Entra ID CTF

BleepingComputer · · International · Data Breaches

Varonis has released a free, hands-on Capture the Flag challenge designed to teach security practitioners how attackers exploit Microsoft Entra ID, using realistic scenarios to simulate common identity-based attack techniques.

Why this matters: Most breaches do not start with exotic malware. They start with someone getting into an identity system and moving quietly from there. Entra ID is the front door to Microsoft environments used by thousands of organizations, which makes it a priority target. Free training that shows defenders exactly how those attacks work is genuinely useful. The more people who understand the attack path, the harder it becomes to walk it undetected.
