Scientists from all over the world can publish their articles and stay in dialogue with colleagues and industry. It also aims at discovering and defining new directions of research and topics. AIS Transaction on Enterprise Systems is an international open access online journal with an issue appearing every six months. Contributions addressing any topic regarding enterprise systems are welcome. AIS Transaction on Enterprise Systems publishes original papers, case studies and reviews. Submitted articles must not have been previously published or currently submitted for journal publication elsewhere.

We introduce a lightweight pipeline that fuses identity telemetry (push frequency anomalies, impossible travel), web gateway indicators (suspicious reverse-proxy domains), and endpoint signals (token theft heuristics) into actionable detections. Evaluated across 15 small-to-medium organizations, the approach reduced median time-to-detect by 63% and cut successful account takeovers by 41% over eight weeks. We document failure modes (e.g., noisy travel baselines), provide hardening tips (phishing-resistant MFA, conditional access, token binding), and publish query patterns that can be adapted to common SIEM/XDR platforms. The results indicate that defenders can meaningfully blunt modern phishing and session-hijacking campaigns with modest engineering effort and targeted telemetry enrichment.</p>Copyright (c) https://aes-journal.com/index.php/ais-tes/article/view/56Beyond Phishing: Detecting MFA Fatigue and Adversary-in-the-Middle at Scale2026-06-18T06:37:35+00:00Lisa Jonesauthorn2r6a5@tempmail.org<p>This study proposes a defender-centric strategy to detect and contain two fast-rising attack patterns—MFA fatigue and Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM)—without relying on expensive tooling.
