​​Kratos PhaaS Targets US and EU: How to Reduce Microsoft 365 Account Takeover Risk​

Kratos is a mature Phishing-as-a-Service operation targeting Microsoft 365 users across the United States, Europe, and other regions. The platform enables attackers to steal credentials through trusted platforms, anti-bot verification, and convincing login pages. Researchers traced three generations of the kit and uncovered 1,484 previously unattributed detonations. The operation targets organizations across more than 20 countries with particularly strong concentration in the US, Spain, and Southern Europe. Kratos includes an operator panel allowing deployment of phishing domains, configurable Telegram or email delivery, geographic restrictions, and multiple anti-bot systems. The kit has evolved through three page generations (V0, V1, V2) with different exfiltration code. Activity has been visible since January 2026, with the operator panel active since September 2025.
