October 2026 is Cyber Security Awareness Month and Microsoft is changing the way users sign in.

Are you ready?

🔐 Passkeys are becoming the default authentication method in Microsoft Entra ID from September 2026, with Microsoft-provided SMS and voice authentication retiring on 1 February 2027.

Key takeaways:
✅ Stronger, phishing-resistant security
✅ No additional Microsoft licensing costs
✅ User registration prompts begin from September 2026
✅ Organisations still relying on SMS or voice authentication need a transition plan before February 2027

Now is the time to review your authentication strategy, assess business impact, and prepare users for a smoother move to passwordless security.

If you'd like to understand what this means for your organisation and explore your options, get in touch with Marcus Schaffrath for an exploratory chat.

October 2026 is Cyber Security Awareness Month.

The cyber threats may be evolving, but the root causes of many breaches remain the same.

Too often, organisations focus on the latest security tools while overlooking the fundamentals – governance, visibility, user awareness and resilience.

The reality is that many cyber incidents still stem from familiar weaknesses and preventable mistakes.

In our latest article, we explore why the same risks continue to catch organisations out in 2026 – and what leaders can do to strengthen their defences.

The traditional managed IT model asks you to hand everything over.

Co-managed IT works differently. You retain control of the elements you want to own. We manage the rest — providing the expertise, the resource, and the Microsoft-certified infrastructure that keeps your business running at its best.

It is the model that works for organisations that want the best of both worlds: internal ownership and external expertise, without the gap between them.

You presented in such a natural way, the insight you gave into the Service Desk role and your own journey into IT made it very personal, informative and engaging, hence the many questions at the end ! Well done and thanks again".

Cybersecurity is about more than responding to attacks – it’s about preventing them in the first place.

At C5 Alliance, we believe the strongest cyber defences are built on robust governance, secure-by-design principles, 24/7 monitoring, and the ability to respond locally when it matters most.

From strategy and assurance to managed security operations, we help organisations stay resilient in an ever-evolving threat landscape.
