The Greatness phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) platform has expanded from credential phishing to adversary-in-the-middle attacks and device-code phishing targeting Microsoft 365 accounts.
The platform has been active since at least mid-2022, targeting Microsoft 365 users in the United States, Canada, the UK, Australia, and South Africa.
