# Dataforth — Account & Mailbox Check: jantar@dataforth.com **Date:** 2026-05-03 (UTC) **Tenant:** Dataforth Corporation (`dataforth.com`, `7dfa3ce8-c496-4b51-ab8d-bd3dcd78b584`) **Subject:** Jacque Antar (UPN `jantar@dataforth.com`, object id `daa60027-be31-47a5-87af-d728499a9cc4`) **Trigger:** Email surfaced on a paid dark-web ID monitoring report. **Tool:** ComputerGuru Security Investigator (Graph read-only) — App ID `bfbc12a4-f0dd-4e12-b06d-997e7271e10c` **Operator:** Howard Enos **Scope:** Read-only. No remediation taken. ## Summary - **MFA is ENABLED and IS being enforced.** Per-user MFA state = `enforced`. Last 30 days of sign-ins all show `MFA requirement satisfied by claim in the token`. Non-interactive sign-ins (Outlook, Teams, etc.) all report `authenticationRequirement: multiFactorAuthentication`. - **MFA method registered: SMS only** to `+1 520-245-6929`. No Authenticator app, no FIDO key. SMS is the weakest second factor (SIM-swap, SS7). - **Mailbox is clean of obvious breach indicators.** No suspicious inbox rules, no auto-forwarding visible in Graph, no foreign sign-ins, no mass-mail patterns in sent items, no flagged risk detections. Sent items match her accounting role. - **Posture gaps to fix (separate from breach response):** 1. All 3 Conditional Access policies on this tenant are in **report-only** mode (`enabledForReportingButNotEnforced`) — including "Require MFA", "Block Legacy Authentication", and "Block Foreign Sign-Ins". The only thing enforcing MFA today is the deprecated per-user MFA toggle. Microsoft has been pushing tenants off per-user MFA for years. 2. She has **OAuth grants for legacy email scopes** (IMAP, EWS, EAS) to "Apple Internet Accounts" and "eM Client". These are legitimate clients she uses, but they're protocol-level paths that the disabled "Block Legacy Auth" CA policy would close. 3. **All 30d sign-ins originate from `67.206.163.122` (Salt Lake City, UT, CenturyLink residential).** Dataforth is Tucson. Either she's remote-working from SLC, uses a VPN exiting there, or this is persistent unauthorized access. **Confirm with her / Mike.** Same IP for 30 days = same workstation, not impersonation churn — but that workstation might or might not be hers. ## Target details | Field | Value | |---|---| | UPN | jantar@dataforth.com | | Object ID | daa60027-be31-47a5-87af-d728499a9cc4 | | Display name | Jacque Antar | | Account enabled | true | | Created | 2023-12-07 | | Last password change | **2026-03-09** (~55 days ago) | | Assigned licenses | 1 | ## MFA — enabled and enforced? **Enabled: YES.** Per-user MFA legacy endpoint returned `perUserMfaState: enforced`. Registration report: `isMfaCapable: true, isMfaRegistered: true`. **Enforced at sign-in: YES.** Evidence: - All 8 interactive sign-ins (last 30d) ended successfully with `additionalDetails: "MFA requirement satisfied by claim in the token"`. That string only appears when Entra evaluated MFA and it was satisfied (either by fresh challenge or by an MFA-claim in the cached refresh token). - Non-interactive sign-ins (10 sampled from 2026-05-02 alone — Outlook, Edge, OfficeHome, WeveAgave, etc.) all show `authenticationRequirement: "multiFactorAuthentication"`. **Methods registered:** `mobilePhone` only (SMS to `+1 520-245-6929`). `defaultMfaMethod: null`, `userPreferredMethodForSecondaryAuthentication: sms`. **Caveat — what's enforcing the MFA:** - It is the legacy **per-user MFA "enforced"** flag, not Conditional Access. All 3 CA policies on this tenant are in `enabledForReportingButNotEnforced`: - `ACG - Require MFA for All Users` — report-only - `ACG - Block Legacy Authentication` — report-only - `ACG - Block Foreign Sign-Ins` — report-only - Security Defaults: disabled. - This works today, but Microsoft is sunsetting per-user MFA. The CA policies should be flipped to "On". **Recommendation for Jacque specifically:** 1. Have her register Microsoft Authenticator (push/TOTP) as her primary, demote SMS to fallback. Self-service: https://aka.ms/mfasetup 2. Treat SMS-only as a known posture gap until Authenticator is added. ## Per-check findings ### 1. Inbox rules (Graph v1.0) - 1 rule, **disabled**. Moves messages whose header contains `X-Inky-Graymail: True` to a folder, then stops processing. This is a normal Inky-anti-phishing graymail filter. **Not suspicious.** ### 2. Mailbox settings (Graph) - Auto-reply: disabled. Time zone US Mountain. Locale en-US. **Nothing flagged.** ### 3. Exchange REST (hidden rules / mailbox permissions / SendAs / Get-Mailbox) - **NOT CHECKED.** Exchange admin endpoint returned **HTTP 401** for the Security Investigator SP on this tenant. The "Exchange Administrator" directory role is not assigned to that SP in Dataforth. This is a known gap from the per-tenant onboarding step. - To enable: a tenant Global Admin assigns the Exchange Administrator role to the `ComputerGuru Security Investigator` service principal in this tenant's Entra Roles blade (or run `bash .claude/skills/remediation-tool/scripts/onboard-tenant.sh dataforth.com` if cert auth works on this machine). Without it we can't see hidden inbox rules, delegates, SendAs, or the canonical `ForwardingAddress / ForwardingSmtpAddress / DeliverToMailboxAndForward` mailbox flags. - The Graph-side mailbox settings show no forwarding flag (`automaticRepliesSetting.status: disabled`) but Graph cannot see the Exchange-only forwarding fields. ### 4. OAuth consents + app role assignments - **2 user-consented OAuth grants** (both consented by her, scope = legacy email): | Resource | Client ID | Scopes | |---|---|---| | Office 365 Exchange Online | `85e650f8-5eec-4523-a9ef-fc1a031fb1d6` | `openid offline_access EAS.AccessAsUser.All` (Apple Internet Accounts — EAS) | | Office 365 Exchange Online | `25db1c08-f5a0-4f6c-bbdd-a738689b1587` | `IMAP.AccessAsUser.All EWS.AccessAsUser.All offline_access email openid` (eM Client) | - **2 app role assignments** under her account: - "Apple Internet Accounts" (assigned 2024-04-02) - "eM Client" (assigned 2024-08-26) - Both consistent with a Mac user running Apple Mail + a Windows/Mac user running eM Client. **Legitimate clients**, but they consume legacy auth scopes (IMAP / EWS / EAS) that bypass modern auth challenges. The disabled "Block Legacy Auth" CA policy would normally block these. ### 5. Authentication methods - 2 methods on record: - `passwordAuthenticationMethod` (last set 2026-03-09) - `phoneAuthenticationMethod` mobile, `+1 520-245-6929` - No `microsoftAuthenticatorAuthenticationMethod`, no FIDO2, no Windows Hello, no software OATH token. ### 6. Sign-ins (last 30 days, interactive) - 8 successful sign-ins. **All 8 from `67.206.163.122` (Salt Lake City, UT, CenturyLink-issued residential).** No failures, no foreign-geo, no legacy-auth client app types in this set. - App: mostly "Dime Client" (`a2760c41-63c9-42b5-8d58-bfa1fd9e2eb3` — Microsoft first-party app, used by some web client surfaces) + one "One Outlook Web". - Risk level: `hidden` (Identity Protection not licensed). - **Action:** confirm with Jacque or Mike that the SLC IP is hers (remote work, VPN, etc.). If not, treat as compromise. ### 7. Directory audits (last 30 days, target = jantar) - 5 events, all benign: - 3 × "Update user" by Microsoft Substrate Management (Microsoft system process, automatic profile maintenance) - 2 × "Add member to group" on 2026-04-06 by `dcenter@dataforth.com` (admin activity) - **No password resets, no auth-method changes, no role grants, no app consents by anyone other than her.** ### 8. Risky users / risk detections - **HTTP 403 Forbidden** — `"Your tenant is not licensed for this feature."` Identity Protection requires Entra ID P2; Dataforth's SKUs (O365 Business Premium, Business Standard, Exchange Standard) include P1 only. **Not checkable on this tenant.** ### 9. Sent items (last 25) - Normal accounting/AP work: Patricia at `times-biz.com` (external bookkeeper), AMoreno + sabreu at `crestins.com` (insurance broker), Paychex contacts (`nknippel@`, `cknoll@`), internal Dataforth (`Kellynwackerly@`, `tdean@`, `dcenter@`, `ghaubner@`, `ofest@`, `ltobey@`, `shipping@`), various vendor reply-thread subjects ("Sales Invoice", "Statement", "JE to correct AP issue", "Commissions", "ACH", "Bank", "PER1 and PIN1"). - **No blast patterns, no unusual external recipients, no obvious phishing or BEC payloads.** Subject lines and recipient mix consistent with her finance role. ### 10. Deleted items (last 25 visible) - Only 3 items: 1 promotional email (`info-az-specialists.com@shared1.ccsend.com`), 2 self-sent items (probably saved-then-discarded drafts). Low count likely indicates Deleted Items is being emptied regularly or auto-purged by retention. **Not flagged**, but anomalous low count means a mailbox-level audit log search would be needed if you want to see what was deleted earlier. ## Suspicious items pulled from above - **All 30d sign-ins from a single Salt Lake City residential IP** (Dataforth is Tucson). Not a breach indicator on its own — the IP is consistent for 30 days, suggesting one persistent client. **Confirm with Jacque or Mike whether she works from SLC / uses a VPN there.** - **Two OAuth grants to legacy-auth third-party email clients** (eM Client, Apple Mail). These are legitimate apps but they keep IMAP/EWS/EAS sessions alive that the dormant "Block Legacy Auth" CA policy would otherwise close. Ask whether she still uses both clients. ## Gaps — checks not completed | Gap | Reason | Fix | |---|---|---| | Hidden inbox rules, delegates, SendAs, mailbox forwarding fields | Exchange Admin role not assigned to Security Investigator SP in this tenant (HTTP 401) | Tenant Global Admin: assign "Exchange Administrator" to SP `bfbc12a4-...` in Entra Roles. Or run `onboard-tenant.sh dataforth.com` after fixing PyJWT on operator workstation. | | Identity Protection (riskyUsers, riskDetections) | Tenant not licensed for AAD/Entra ID P2 | Out of scope — would require license upgrade for ~$9/user/mo. | ## Next actions 1. **Confirm SLC sign-in IP with Mike or Jacque** — is `67.206.163.122` her? (single highest-value question) 2. **Have Jacque add Microsoft Authenticator** as MFA method, demote SMS to backup. Self-service: https://aka.ms/mfasetup. Could be done in 2 minutes during her next phone call with us. 3. **Force a password reset** as a precaution given the dark-web hit (separate `/remediation-tool remediate jantar@dataforth.com password-reset` would do it after explicit YES — currently NOT executed). 4. **Tenant-level posture (separate engagement, discuss with Mike before doing):** - Flip the 3 ACG CA policies from report-only to On. - Assign Exchange Administrator to the Security Investigator SP so we can see hidden rules / forwarding on future investigations. - Decide whether eM Client / Apple Mail (legacy-auth scopes) are still needed — if yes, those users will need an exemption when "Block Legacy Auth" is enforced. ## Data artifacts Raw JSON in `/tmp/remediation-tool/7dfa3ce8-c496-4b51-ab8d-bd3dcd78b584/user-breach/jantar_dataforth_com/`: - `00_user.json`, `01_inbox_rules_graph.json`, `02_mailbox_settings.json` - `04a_oauth_grants.json`, `04b_app_role_assignments.json` - `05_auth_methods.json`, `06_signins.json`, `07_dir_audits.json` - `08a_risky_user.json` (403 — not licensed), `08b_risk_detections.json` (403) - `09_sent.json`, `10_deleted.json` - `mfa_perUserState.json`, `mfa_regDetails.json`, `ca_policies.json`, `secdef.json` - `03a_InboxRule_hidden.json` / `03d_Mailbox.json` are EMPTY (Exchange 401)
