### Attacker in the Middle

−Also referred to as Adversary in the Middle, this high precision detection is triggered when an authentication session is linked to a malicious reverse proxy. In this kind of attack, the adversary can intercept the user's credentials, including tokens issued to the user. The Microsoft Security Research team uses Microsoft 365 Defender for Office to capture the identified risk and raises the user to **High** risk. We recommend administrators manually investigate the user when this detection is triggered to ensure the risk is cleared. Clearing this risk might require secure password reset or revocation of existing sessions.
