Microsoft Entra is retiring SMS & voice MFA.

Is your business ready?

Microsoft-provided SMS and voice authentication will be fully retired on 1 February 2027, as Microsoft moves organisations toward stronger, more phishing-resistant authentication methods.

This change is important because SMS and voice authentication can be more vulnerable to threats such as phishing, SIM swapping and interception.

Businesses should start looking at:

๐Ÿ‘‰ Which users still have SMS or voice authentication enabled
๐Ÿ‘‰ Whether SMS is being used for password recovery
๐Ÿ‘‰ Which stronger authentication method is right for their users
๐Ÿ‘‰ Whether everything continues to work correctly after migration

Recommended options include passkeys, Windows Hello for Business, FIDO2 security keys and Microsoft Authenticator, depending on your organisation's requirements.

The important thing is not to wait until the retirement deadline.

If you're unsure whether your business is affected, get in touch with our team.

Our clients have always been one of the best ways new businesses find Techtron.

A recommendation from someone who already knows how we work means a lot to us.

So, for a limited time, we're giving our clients a little something in return. ๐ŸŽ

It could be:

A business that's struggling with their current IT provider.
A company that's growing and needs more support.

Or someone looking for a stronger approach to cybersecurity.

You don't need to sell them on Techtron.

There are plenty of Managed IT and Cybersecurity providers to choose from.

But why Techtron?

We don't think the answer should simply be because we're faster, or because we have the right words on our website.

We want to be chosen because we've demonstrated that we're willing to do the work.

๐Ÿ‘‰ We've worked to become an MSSP.
๐Ÿ‘‰ We've worked to become a Microsoft Solutions Partner.
๐Ÿ‘‰ We've built a track record of 50+ five-star Google reviews.

But we're proud of those things for a reason.

- They represent work.
- They represent standards.
- They represent the trust that clients have placed in us.

And that's the part that matters most.

When a client puts their IT, systems and security in our hands, we know that saying "we'll take care of it" isn't enough.

We have to actually take care of it.

Even when it's complicated.
Even when doing it properly takes more work than doing what's easy.

That's the kind of IT partner we want to be.

We don't think businesses should choose between cyber insurance and strong cybersecurity.

They serve different purposes.

A business we were auditing mentioned they have cyber Insurance, so they weren't worried about cyber threats.

Unfortunately, cyber insurance doesn't fix weak security.

Most insurers require organisations to demonstrate that certain security controls are in place before providing or pay out on cover.

Cyber insurance means you've transferred some of the financial risk, but it's one part of a wider strategy that should include prevention, detection, response and recovery.

Businesses spend a lot of time protecting their email, devices, networks, and cloud systems.

Because of this, there's another part of the environment attackers are targeting:

Mobile devices (and it's quite obvious why)

A phone call doesn't need to:

- Exploit a vulnerability in your firewall.
- It doesn't need to bypass your endpoint protection.
- It doesn't need to break into Microsoft 365.

Someone can simply convince you to do something you shouldn't.

That's what makes social engineering so effective.

The technology can be secure...

But if an attacker can convince the person using that technology to bypass the security process themselves, the technology doesn't get the final say.

Training your staff to recognise suspicious calls, verify unexpected requests, and know when to stop is another layer of your security environment.

Celebrating 1 Year with Techtron ๐ŸŽ‰

Most internal IT teams already have enough alerts, tickets, systems and responsibilities competing for their attention.

Sometimes it looks like:

โ€œThat's on my list for next week.โ€
โ€œWe'll review that when things calm down.โ€
โ€œI know we need to update it.โ€
โ€œI haven't had time to look at that yet.โ€

And then another urgent ticket arrives.

Internal IT teams are often dealing with an endless stream of immediate problems while trying to find time for the work that actually improves the environment.

And when operational issues consume the team's time, security work becomes the thing that gets pushed back.

๐Ÿ‘‰ That's where Techtron's co-managed IT can make a real difference...

The goal isn't to replace your internal IT team.

It's to give them the capacity to focus on the work that moves the business forward, while having the additional support to keep security and day-to-day operations under control.

If your internal IT team is stretched, a co-managed IT model could be worth exploring.

Cybersecurity doesn't always require another tool or a major technology investment.

Sometimes, it's about getting the basics right and making sure they're actually being managed.

In this week's Tech Tip, we're covering five practical checks every business should make, from MFA and old user accounts to permissions, backups, and staff awareness.

We've never reviewed a firewall that didn't have room for improvement.

The single biggest gap we uncover during client audits? Unrestricted outbound traffic.

Over time, this also becomes common:

โ€ข New employees join.
โ€ข Old employees leave.
โ€ข New software gets introduced.
โ€ข Cloud services are added.
โ€ข Remote work becomes normal.

But firewall policies often stay exactly the same.

Small changes accumulate.

Temporary rules become permanent.

Exceptions are forgotten.

A firewall should evolve alongside the business it's protecting.

The question isn't whether you have one.

๐Ÿ‘‰ It's whether it's protecting the business you have built today.
