6 TopicsAuthenticator app not working on new phone - old phone with app is gone
Hello Tech Community, I have trouble with my email (hotmail) account. About 12 months ago I downloaded and activated the authenticator app after having hackers trying to enter my hotmail account. A few months ago I changed my phone and I have never been asked for second factor authentication until today (so I did not pay much attention to it as I could see it. The phone number attached is old and have no access to it and that device is long gone too). BIG PROBLEM! I have the app on my new phone but it is not linked to my account (and cannot do a Cloud Recovery). If I try to do anything with my account (forward emails or change anything) it asks me for the authenticator approval/code (that I do not have access to). I am scared about doing something that will log me out of my email (which I still have access to) but cannot make any changes nor log out. Please help. Can I deactivate the authenticator app somehow? or re-set it-up to work again? Can I migrate all my emails to a new account so I do not lose years of information if I get logged out? Can I set the forwarding emails option without having to pass by second facto authentication? Looking forward to hearing from you wise community, Thank you23KViews0likes7CommentsAccount Hacked
Hello Community, My account has been hacked, copied and/or duplicated with some other account as I was originally Sids1 with this email for more than 6 months now and this has changed somehow. It's very concerning to me since I also found some other person named Siddhartha when I was logging into my account. I reported that to the Microsoft Account Team but have not received any replies yet. Please suggest anything that can be done to catch this hacker who is stealing my identity to and fro. Best Regards Siddhartha SharmaSolved695Views1like3CommentsAdding Distributed COM Users group in the built-in groups for AD
I came across this question from one of my connections in my network. "A user was added to the Distributed COM Users group in the built-in groups for AD however it seems to be doing nothing for allowing that user to access dcom on the servers. Isn't the point of the built-in groups is that they are already defaulted to the correct permissions and setup on object in the AD structure? Is there a way to test? An effective access on an OU with that group was done and it was all denied. Is this the right way to test those particular permissions" I suggested the following: As the added users are not able to access the dcom server. In that case it is good to check the dcom remote access permissions in the component services. Remote access and local access should be enabled. If it is not then any user part of distributed com users group will not be able to access the dcom servers. Let me what are your thoughts on this. Thanks.1.2KViews0likes0CommentsSharePoint Online - Security Groups - Inheritance
Hello, I have on interesting question about SharePoint Online and Security Groups. I site for example "Customer", where is document library. In that library is folder "IT" and in that folder are two subfolders "Administrative" and "Technician". Folder "IT" - two security groups SG_ALL_READ everyone in this security group have permission read folder IT members of this groups: SG_ADM_RW SG_TECH_RW SG_ADM_FC everyone in this security group have permission full control in the folder "IT" members of this groups are users administrators Subfolder "Administrative" - Inheritance is disabled SG_ADM_RW members of this groups are users from administrative with permission read and write Subfolder "Technician" - Inheritance is disabled SG_TECH_RW members of this groups are users technicians with permission read and write When administrator from security group SG_ADM_FC will create new subfolder in folder "IT", for example "Others", this folder "Others" will automatically inherit security groups SG_ALL_READ and SG_ADM_FC. Which means that all users (administrators, users from administrative, users technician) have access for new folder "Other" (no matter what permission). My questions is: Is there any way how to tell security group SG_ALL_READ "do not automatically inherit yourself" when new subfolder is created? This scenario is for regular users. That is why I need this. I know me as administrator can do it but I need something more easier for regular user. I tried to create diagram .. hope it is understandable :-). Thank you very much for your help!!865Views0likes0CommentsAdd Mail Enabled Security Group to MS Teams
