    Getting multiple one-time code request emails. Trying to understand which API or product the attacker is trying to gain access to.

    1. Received multiple single-use code requests via non-MSN email associated with the account.

    2. Just to be safe I have changed the primary email associated with this MSN account to another address protected by MFA.

    3. Immediately started receiving single-use code requests in my new mailbox. How is this possible, doesn't MS provide only a partial view of the email and the end user is supposed to provide the full match?

    Question:

    I do know how to go into account security and view recent activity. I am seeing multiple failed sign-in and account sync attempts from all over the globe, I guess the work of some botnet. How can I find out which API or product/service are the attackers trying to get access to so I can ensure the service is adequately protected?

    Thanks in advance.
