Due to a phishing incident, Microsoft 365 services are now accessible exclusively from within Europe.
The reason for this is that over 90% of attacks originate outside Europe. This measure significantly reduces the attack surface.
Exceptions
It is anticipated that exceptions will be necessary in certain cases. These can be enabled on a case-by-case basis. Typical use cases include business trips abroad (limited to the duration of the trip) and international students.
A form is available for business trips abroad: dlinz.sharepoint.com/sites/OE-DioezesaneIT
International students are asked to contact the Office for International Affairs (Servicedeskservicedesk@dioezese-linz.at). The individuals concerned will then be reactivated for international access. Please note that this entails an increased IT security risk.
