Microsoft has never been good at security, and that is why their centralization to cloud is absolutely terrifying.

I'm reminded of Storm-0558 [1] where a stolen signing key was able to forge authentication tokens for any MSA / Azure AD / Government AD user. They downplayed the severity. Just imagine if that level of access was used to pull a Stryker on a nation-wide scale. That is an economic disaster waiting to happen.

I'll do you one better: stealing the signing key was not even necessary.

I knew there was another incident that I was forgetting, insanity... I don't understand how Microsoft keeps getting away with this and everyone just forgets.

When people's income depends on them forgetting... they tend to become amnesiacs.
