What was corrected
"The shared responsibility model is not just contractual -- it is operational. Organizations that assume Microsoft handles security end up with unprotected data. Organizations that understand exactly where their responsibility begins configure effective defenses." -- Ann Johnson, Corporate Vice President of Security, Compliance, and Identity Business Development at Microsoft, from the CyberSecurity Unplugged podcast / "Privileged Identity Management changed how we think about admin access..." -- Nasrin Rezai, CISO, Verizon, from the Microsoft Security Customer Stories series / Microsoft's security research shows that passwordless users experience 1/3 the account compromise rate of password-dependent users.
De-attributed both quotes to plain unattributed prose (removed Ann Johnson and Nasrin Rezai attributions, no locatable source for either quote). Softened the passwordless compromise-rate claim from the specific unverifiable '1/3' figure to qualitative language ('substantially lower'), since it did not match Microsoft's actual published figures (92%/99.2% fewer compromises). Removed the now-orphaned Johnson reference-list entry. Left the IBM $4.45M breach-cost figure and the MFA 99.9% stat unchanged as both were verified accurate.
Suggested change
De-attributed both fabricated quotes (Johnson, Rezai) to plain unattributed prose; left the two verified-accurate statistics (IBM breach cost, MFA 99.9%) completely unchanged; softened the passwordless compromise-rate claim to qualitative language since the specific fractional figure did not match real published Microsoft data; removed the now-orphaned Johnson reference-list entry tied to the fabricated quote.
Why this is better
Applied fact-check fix: de-attributed two unverified quotes (Ann Johnson, Nasrin Rezai), corrected an unverifiable fractional stat, removed orphaned reference entry.
